When A Free Birth In London Goes Viral

Today I speak with the incredible Lacey Haynes from London. After consciously conceiving her love baby she was thrilled to begin prenatal care with her OB. After a deeply underwhelming prenatal where she was treated dismissively and told she was on a conveyor belt, Lacey switched to the midwifery program. The midwives also had little to offer in way of individualized care and Lacey was led to the choice to go it alone with her husband and dear friend. Lacey had a weekend long champion of a labor. She was later interviewed by the Guardian on her free birth, which went viral overnight and has brought an onslaught of commentary and attention to her choices.
