Episode Synopsis

Melissa did just about everything to prepare for an at-home birth. From hypno-birth classes, meditations, etc. She was surrounded by an RN, Doula and Midwife while she delivered her daughter, Lydia, at home. The baby was wrapped in the umbilical cord - which led to a very traumatic birth and the baby being rushed to the hospital. Melissa had to stay home while Lydia was rushed to the hospital and she did not see her baby for 3 days while she healed at home. Melissa talks about the harsh thoughts she had during her healing process, the postpartum treatment she sought and how she recognized what was going on.
