Episode 120 - Haley's Unmedicated Induction: Navigating Unexpected Moments

Episode 120 - Haley's Unmedicated Induction: Navigating Unexpected Moments

In this episode, Haley shares her honest and inspiring birth story with me. Haley’s labour was induced, which brought some challenges she hadn’t anticipated, including a drop in her baby’s heart rate and the possibility of an episiotomy, something she really wanted to avoid. Despite these hurdles, Haley had a natural, unmedicated birth and met her baby just six hours after labour began.

Haley talks about the experience of pushing through uncertainty, the surprising speed of her labour, and the special moments after birth, including delayed cord clamping and skin-to-skin time with her newborn. She also reflects on the emotions that come with birth, from relief and gratitude to the adrenaline rush that follows.

What You’ll Hear:

  • How Haley managed her induction and responded to the baby’s changing heart rate
  • The importance of support from her midwife, doula, and partner during labour
  • Her determination to avoid an episiotomy and how she pushed through the final stages
  • Insights on how a twisted umbilical cord may have affected her baby’s size and birth plan
  • The quick progression of her labour and going home the same day
  • The experience of post-birth adrenaline and settling into life with a newborn
  • A conversation about the differences between spontaneous and induced contractions

Haley’s story offers a grounded look at how birth plans can change, but how positive and empowering birth can still be. It’s a reassuring listen for anyone preparing for birth or interested in real-life birth experiences.

Episode 55 - How to ’Naturally’ Induce Labour

In today's solo episode I discuss ways you can 'naturally' induce labour. Some of the things have some science behind them while others are old wives tales. The important thing to remember is that your body and your baby are incredibly clever and have a system in place which signals that baby is ready and labour can begin. Please do your own research and consult with your care provider before attempting anything I talk about. 🌸 Resources & Links 🤰 Doula Packages – Discover how I can support you throughout pregnancy and birth: The Nurture Nest Doula Services 🎓 Hypnobirthing Courses – Learn tools and techniques to feel calm and confident: Explore Courses ☕ Say Thanks – If this podcast has helped you, you can buy me a coffee here 📚 Claire’s Book Recommendations – My favourite reads for pregnancy and birth: Amazon Book List 📖 The Little Book of Positive Birth Stories – Celebrate inspiring birth stories: Get Your Copy Here 🎬 Birth Time Documentary – Get 20% off with code CICADA20: Watch Here 📸 Instagram – Daily tips, birth stories & inspiration: @the_nurture_nest 🛁 Birth Pool Discount – Get 10% off here: Claim Offer ⚡ BabyCare TENS Discount – 10% off with code 10NURTURENEST: Shop Here
