In this conversation, she opens up about the untold elements of her experience, offering an honest reflection on how expectations can differ from reality in birth.We explore:The vision of a pain-free birth and how it contrasted with realityThe unplanned circumstances that shaped Poppy’s second birthThe emotional impact of unmet expectationsWhy speaking about the less-shared parts of birth matters so deeplyPoppy’s openness is a true gift, and I’m so grateful for her courage in sharing the sides of her story that have remained unspoken. Her reflections will reassure and support anyone who has felt the gap between what they imagined birth would be and the reality they experienced.Resources & Links:Connect with Poppy on instagram: @PopthatmummaFollow me on Instagram: @ultimatebirthpartnerExplore more episodes: The Ultimate Birth Partner PodcastIf you love the podcast and would like to support it, then please use the link to 'buy me a coffee' - https://bmc.link/sallyannberesfordIf you would like to buy a copy of either of the books that accompany this podcast please go to your online bookseller or visit Amazon:-Labour of Love - The Ultimate Guide to Being a Birth Partner - click here:-https://bit.ly/LabourofloveThe Art of Giving Birth - Five Key Physiological Principles - https://amzn.to/3EGh9dfPregnancy Journal for 'The Art of Giving Birth' - Black and White version https://amzn.to/3CvJXmOPregnancy Journal for 'The Art of Giving Birth'- Colour version https://amzn.to/3GknbPFYou can find all my classes and courses on my website - www.sallyannberesford.co.uk Follow me on Instagram @theultimatebirthpartner Book a 1-2-1 session with Sallyann - https://linktr.ee/SallyannBeresford Please remember that the information shared with you in this episode is solely based on my own personal experiences as a doula and the private opinions of my guests, based on their own experiences.
