S3 Ep2 Plus Size Pregnancy with Dr Alice Keely

The Belle Mama Hypnobirthing and Positive Birth Podcast

Show Notes

In this episode, I chat with Dr. Alice Keely, founder of the Heavyweight Midwife, about plus-size pregnancy care. We cover the stigma often faced by plus-size women, the importance of informed decision-making, and how to advocate for personalised, evidence-based care.

Dr. Alice shares her insights on BMI limitations, water births, and the challenges within the healthcare system when it comes to supporting plus-size pregnant women.
