Join Cath as she breaks down our fantasies around child birth with the realities of what we can expect behind the curtain. A discussion unlocking the minutia of everything from the cervix and how it dilates, epidurals, types of birth, the baby straight after birth, bonding, skin to skin and breast feeding.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
