This episode sees the midwives discussing the very early postnatal period, from the birthing/recovery room to time of discharge from hospital (for hospital births).

We answer a Dear Fanny question about emotional trauma post birth. Please send on any questions you may have, we would be delighted to answer them anonymously on an upcoming episode! 

This episode was recorded in February but down to our individual technical difficulties it has taken a while to reach the airwaves!!

Yonic Boom - Episode 13 - Initial Postnatal Period

The midwives are back... and perhaps a tad rusty!! Lots of laughs along the way in this informative episode! 

In this episode caesarean birth is discussed, why it happens, how often it happens, prepping and recovering too. 

A great question from a listener for Dear Fanny and the Feminist of the Episode is the one and only St Brigid.
