Show Notes
NEW EPISODES COMING IN SEPTEMBER! HIT FOLLOW TO ENSURE YOU WON'T MISS THEM. In this episode, we have Anne Margolis as a guest: a certified nurse midwife (CNM) and holistic practitioner with 30+ years of experience, and the creator of the Love Your Birth online course. Anne brings both deep clinical expertise and an unshakeable belief in the body's natural capacity to birth — and this conversation is exactly the kind of honest, empowering, evidence-based guidance that every pregnant woman deserves to hear long before she walks into a delivery room.
Whether you're planning a home birth, a hospital birth, hoping for natural labor, or open to an epidural — this episode is for you.
From the shocking gap between US maternity outcomes and the rest of the developed world, to spinning babies, the resting phase of labor, coached vs instinctual pushing, fear work, doulas, and the gentle C-section — Anne and Annabella cover everything the system rarely takes the time to explain.

Olivia Hinge is back, and this time your questions lead the way.
Part 2 is the "so what can we actually do?" half.
Part 1 is the "is this normal?" half.
Part 2 is the honest half.
Host Olivia sits down with Miranda Sykes, a London-based NHS and private midwife and lactation consultant, to answer the questions you sent in about those first few weeks at home with a newborn. Part 1 covers what to ask for before you leave hospital, what the first 24 hours at home really look like, and how much of what worries new parents is simply normal.
