41 | Bruna & Noah - Private Pre-Natal Care, Miscarriage & a Planned C-Section in Czech Republic

In this episode we hear Bruna share the birth of her little boy Noah. Bruna is Brazilian/Italian, her partner is German and while they are currently living in Germany, her birth story took place in Prague, Czech Republic. Bruna shares with us how her journey to her pregnancy with Noah first took her though a miscarriage and how that affected the start of Noahs.

We talk about looking for Pre-Natal care that we feel comfortable with and Bruna chose to go with Canadian Medical and giving birth in Podoli Maternity Hospital in Prague which she was happy with in the end.

Towards the end of the pregnancy her doctors advised her that Noah was very big and Bruna opted for a planned c-section in the end. She shared her experience with going through a c-section during the pandemic and how that affected the choices they could make for the birth and postpartum in the hospital.

Bruna really recommends listening to birth stories as a preparation for your birth experience and also talking to your friends and family who have given birth before.
