Episode notes
In this heartfelt episode of Philippa Squared: Parenting by Design, hosts Philippa Scott and Pippa Cox engage in a compassionate conversation about the profound choices surrounding childbirth—medicated versus physiological births.
They explore not only the definitions but also the emotional, mental, and social impacts these choices can have on mothers and their newborns.
Pippa shares the beauty of physiological birth, where the body naturally goes into labour, while Philippa discusses the emotional repercussions of medicated births, including feelings of guilt and the struggle for self-trust as a parent.
This episode aims to educate parents with understanding and compassion, encouraging them to reflect on their own birthing experiences and how these choices resonate throughout their parenting journey.
