#56 - Monique Maitland - The Miracle of Life

Monique Maitland is a midwife, nurse, founder of The Middee Podcast and Creator of The Middee Society. A modern day midwifery pre and post natal community education initiative.
On this episode, Mon took us behind the scenes of the incredible work midwives do when they bring new life into the world.
She shared with us the beautiful touching moments between parents as they welcome their new child, her role throughout the labour and some great tips for partners to help through the difficult process.
But Mon also shared with us the flip side. The gut wrenching occasions when a child doesn't make it. The tender moment of the poor family and the pain that is felt throughout the room.
We laughed as Mon told us the worst excuse for almost missing a birth by a Dad and educated us on the labour process, the different kinds of births and everything in between.
Fair to say we learnt some new words today! And confirmed we aren't ready just yet.
We also talked about the awesome work Mon is doing with The Middee Society and her 'why' for what she does.
Whether you've had children, planning, or no plans at all this episode will have something for you. It's full of education, laughs and positivity.
