#7 Kate | New Zealand Kiwi gives birth during COVID-19 in Okayama, Honshu.

On this latest episode of Birth Stories of Japan we speak with Kate who gave birth in Okayama to her beautiful baby boy Fynn. Originally from New Zealand, she talks about how the borders being shut during the COVID-19 pandemic and not having her mum by her side really messed with her expectations of what her first birth story would be like. It was a tough and lonely journey, but with the support of her husband, her in-laws and good old video calling she found the strength to get through. Overall she was very happy with her care at Miyake Clinic, Okayama. Her story is one of strength and happiness. Thank you so much Kate for sharing your story xx Birthcare facility: + Miyake Clinic, Okayama ------------------------------------------------- Show notes:Acupressure for labour - Healthline article
