GIllian and Warren meet Miles

“I wanted to say thank you for your inspiring Birthtalk classes and let you know that we gave birth to a beautiful little boy, Miles. The birth was a beautiful, empowering and wonderful experience! I did have an epidural in the end, after 24 hours of labouring and then beginning syntocinon, but after 30 hours I pushed Miles out and it was an incredible experience! Warren was absolutely blown away by it all and shed a few tears with the joy of it. The midwives were fantastic and because they could see we had taken a lot of time to prepare a well-thought-out birth plan, they took it on board and listened to us and I believe they really had our backs in dealing with the challenges we faced. 

Thanks ladies, especially Deb for your commitment to the cause and for educating us.”
