Margot Strauhull brought her self-described \u201crule-following\u201d attitude to her first hospital induction with an OB and had what she considered was a fine birth\u2026 until she was overcome by sadness in postpartum. This started her on a journey of peeling back the layers, to finally come to a deep trust in her own wisdom and instincts.\nMargot tells Adriana how the fear radiating from her providers around her \u201chistory of macrosomal infants\u201d further activated her intuition to switch to a freestanding birth center at the beginning of her 3rd trimester, and finally have the undisturbed physiological birth she wanted.\n\nIf you liked this episode, listen to our interview on Big Babies and Shoulder Dystocia and our episode on Birthing Like a Rockstar.\n \nGet the most out of this episode by checking out the resources, transcript, and links listed on this episode\u2019s show notes page at Birthful.com.
