GentleBirth - The GentleBirth Podcast | Positive Birth Stories, Pregnancy, Birth & Breastfeeding with Midwife Tracy Donegan and Guests

Is it possible that the way you move in labor can make your hormones work for you – or against you? Yes!

Is it possible that intentionally adopting a ‘power pose’ in labor can influence your mind and body in positive or negative ways? Yes!

Is it possible that what you wear in labor can influence how you feel in labor? Hospital gown or athletic wear? Yes!

Listen in and learn about power posing for birth.

Four Very Different Labor and Birth Experiences

Meet Maria - Mom of 4 as she shares her fears about labor, how she overcame them and her very different birth experiences including hospital, home, waterbirth and epidural.

At GentleBirth we believe that a positive birth comes in many forms - and it's always defined my Mom. We've combined brain science, birth science and technology using the GentleBirth App to help you 'train your brain' for a positive pregnancy, birth and parenting experience.

Each day of your pregnancy and postpartum period the GentleBirth App will recommend simple but effective mindfulness techniques, hypnosis, breathing techniques and affirmations for you and your partner to build confidence and reduce fear.
