MP3•Episode home

In this episode, we’re talking about the third stage of labour - the birth of the placenta - and why it deserves just as much attention as the rest of the birth process.

Too many women are left in the dark about what happens after the baby is born. From synthetic oxytocin injections and cord traction to postpartum haemorrhage and lack of consent, this part of birth is often rushed, misunderstood, or dismissed altogether.

We’ll explore:

What the third stage of labour actually involves
The difference between physiological and active management
How synthetic oxytocin can impact natural oxytocin, bonding, and breastfeeding
Why so many women feel confused or traumatised by this part of birth
How to prepare, protect your birth space, and make informed choices

This episode will give you the knowledge and context you need to feel empowered during the birth of the placenta.
