Body-Led Birth Plan: My Plans for Third Birth
Positive Pregnancy, Birth and Motherhood by Pop That Mumma founder of Birth Box and Oxytocin BubbleShow Notes
In this episode, I talk about my body-led birth plan and why trusting your internal wisdom is one of the most important parts of birth preparation. A body-led birth plan is not a list of rules or demands. It’s a framework that puts your body, instincts, and physiology at the centre of decision-making during labour and birth. Rather than trying to control how birth unfolds, a body-led birth plan focuses on creating the conditions your body needs to birth well. LINKS - https://popthatmumma.carrd.co/

In this episode, I’ll be sharing: - How I used AI myself during pregnancy and even during labour, as a childbirth educator and doula - Why constantly checking with AI for reassurance might be eroding your trust in yourself - The moment AI told me my baby’s head was crowning when it definitely wasn’t - The importance of tuning into your body and using your intuition to get the answers - The false confidence in AI’s answers, and why fact-checking against credible sources still matters - When AI can actually be useful during this time
Those early days with a newborn are such a big transition, both for you after the birth and for your baby as they move from womb to world.
In this episode, I'm joined by journalist and author Molly Forbes, whose work is dedicated to helping families raise body-confident kids in a culture that constantly judges bodies.
