Ep56 - Nina, Niamh & Elspeth - Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (Menopause), IUGR, Induction, Fast 2nd Labour & Birth, Milk Donation

In Episode 56 of Kiwi Birth Tales I speak with Nina about her 2 birth stories. Nina takes us through coming off the pill and being diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (Menopause), her symptoms and what this meant for her trying to fall pregnant. When Nina did fall pregnant she was diagnosed with Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR) and was monitored regularly through out her pregnancy, ending up being induced at 38 weeks.

Nina takes us through her induction and birth, including an episiotomy to help Niamh make her way into the world, her recovery from birth and also her breastfeeding journey where she received donor milk from her sisters in the early days until her milk supply regulated.

Nina then takes us through falling pregnant again reasonably quickly, no concern for growth restriction but still monitored more regularly due to being at risk for this, and through to her fast vaginal birth. Nina describes the differences between her birth experiences, her quick physical recovering and life as a Mum of two under 2.

Nina also discusses her support of the NZ Charity Mothers Milk, a breastmilk donation charity http://www.mothersmilknz.org.nz/ and how she got involved.

Thanks again for joining me on the podcast Nina!

Thanks for listening!
