💗Things didn’t go exactly as planned with Tar 💗Things didn’t go exactly as planned with Taryn's birth, in fact they went exactly the opposite. 

➡️In this episode of the podcast being brought to you by Ellement Prenatal Supplements, we have Taryn whom is actually one of the members of The Birth Preparation Course.

➡️Now it would be easy for me to only share birth stories from course students where everything went great but that would be dishonest of me. 

💗The reality is that sometimes things don’t go as you’d like, despite having done great childbirth education. 

Birth is an unpredictable process that can’t be controlled. 
➡️BUT...that doesn't mean childbirth education isn't helpul.

💗Taryn was thankful for the podcast and Birth Preparation Course as they helped her adjust on the fly and do what was necessary to get their baby home safe.

In sharing her story Taryn, @tarynnn_itup, hopes she can help others learn the value in being adaptable and shine a light on what she calls that “mama strength we all have inside of us”.

In this Episode, You’ll Learn:

💗Why it’s ok to switch doctors if it doesn’t feel like a good fit

💗How COVID affected Taryn’s prenatal care and birth

💗How Taryn decided to be induced at the last minute - and why she has some regrets about that

💗How her induction ended in an emergency C-section

💗What happened when both she and her baby developed sepsis

💗How her baby ended up in a NICU hospital nearly two hours away

🤰We recommend you don't sleep on your back duri 🤰We recommend you don't sleep on your back during pregnancy. 

Why? 
Because there's an increased risk of stillbirth, particularly in the 3rd trimester. 
The data is not very strong because it's something that's hard to study. But from what we know, trying to sleep on your left side is best.

Episode 33 on the All About Pregnancy and Birth Podcast can give you even more insight into getting some sleep while pregnant. The link is in my bio.

💕But please, DON'T STRESS if you wake up in the middle of the night and you're on your back. 

💕You can't control how you move in your sleep. Just roll to your side and head back to sleep. 

💕Lack of sleep is actually worse for pregnancy than sleeping on your back. 😴

How are you sleeping during this pregnancy? ⏬
