Birth Stories
Every woman, every baby and every birth is different. Whether it is your first baby or your fifth baby, you may be feeling nervous in the weeks leading up to the birth.

We've put together a collection of our members birth stories for you to read to give you some idea of how labour progresses, what you can expect from your midwife or doctor, and how second and subsequent births can be the same, worse or better than first births.

If you have any questions or concerns about your impending labour and birth, please contact your LMC.

If you'd like to contribute your birth story, email us at birthstory@ohbaby.co.nz
