Clare Stephens endured an exhausting and sometimes terrifying birthing experience - and came out of it with an amazing perspective that every pregnant mum needs to hear.
Clare’s experience covers pregnancy anxiety, a long labour and a difficult epidural and her story-telling makes this an amazing listen.
Diary Of A Birth features mums telling their miraculous stories of bringing life into the world, and we have all medical questions and concerns cleared up by one of Australia’s favourite paediatricians, Dr Golly.
If you’d like to share your birth story, we’d love to hear from you at podcast@mamamia.com.au or send us a voice note here.
