This TOTALLY AWESOME and INSPIRING TWIN BREECH BIRTH Story has been shared with us by Hypnomumma Elyse.<\/p>\n

—————<\/p>\n

It is 1:50 am on the 18th of May (I\u2019m 36+4) and my husband has just hopped out of bed to take our 4-year-old daughter, Edith, to the loo. I am laying completely still when I feel my membranes release. I yell out to hubby, Craig, to grab towels because I am too afraid to move \u201cthere\u2019s so much! It\u2019s going EVERYWHERE!\u201d What I could\u2019ve sworn were gushes of such a grand scale (think Hollywood movie) is just a little puddle. I shove a towel between my legs and waddle (because that\u2019s how I move now) to the loo so I can assess what\u2019s going on. Edith is following me asking, \u201cMum, did you do a wee in the bed?\u201d \u201cNo baby girl, I think the babies are coming!\u201d \u201cOh, so it isn\u2019t wee?\u201d. \u201cNope, not wee darling, amniotic fluid, remember?\u201d I can\u2019t blame her for thinking it is wee; I may<\/em>\u00a0have hopped up during the night days earlier and weed down the hallway as a baby jumped on my bladder\u2026who\u2019s to say?<\/p>\n

So, back to the loo. As well as clear waters, I also have some mucus (which started coming away on the 9th of May), and a small stringy blood clot. As I sit on the toilet, and with amniotic fluid still coming out, I begin to get the shakes. Adrenaline! And I think, \u201cShit\u2019s getting real!\u201d I have Craig bring me my phone, while I sit on the loo, do a poo (glad to get that out of the way!), and I attempt to contact my doula. Straight to voicemail. No worries, it\u2019ll be ages before I need her, so I send her a text letting her know what is happening. Off the loo and into the kitchen, sitting on a bunch of towels, I casually say to Craig, \u201cI\u2019m not feeling any surges, perhaps I should just go back to bed?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Two breech babies!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

After a brief discussion around the fact that I haven\u2019t had a scan confirming the boy\u2019s positions but that we know they are both\u00a0breech<\/strong>, we figure the best course of action is to contact our OB, and see what he has to say. Our Ob confirms that given we are unsure exactly how the boys are positioned, it best we jump in the car and head down\u2026of course that\u2019s what he was going to say! I mean, we only have a casual 1.5-2hr drive to get to the hospital; I can\u2019t believe 10 minutes ago I was thinking of going back to bed!\"\"<\/p>\n

I say to Craig, \u201cCan you pack our bags?\u201d (I was certain these boys were going to stay tucked up inside until at least 37 weeks, so in my mind, I still had plenty of time to pack\u2026doing the math, I had 3 days. In my defence, I did have a bag for the babies ready to go).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

While Craig set about that task, I set about calling my sister-in-law to take Edith. No answer when I call, so I get Craig to try our brother-in-law\u2019s phone, same deal. No worries. I\u2019d organised our neighbours as back up. So, I give my neighbour a ring and she was set to take care of Edith. Then we get a call back from our brother-in-law and thankfully they can meet us on our way (sorry neighbour for waking you needlessly).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s about an hour later and we\u2019ve finally managed to pack a bag for me, a bag for Craig, all my pregnancy records, my hypnobirthing stuff, and a bag for Edith. I get Craig to put a mattress protector on the seat in our car and off we go. No signs of surges. We end up meeting our in-laws on our way at around 3am and do the handover. We both breathe a sigh of relief; we are on our way. We are going to meet our beautiful baby boys soon.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here we go!<\/h3>\n

I feel my first surge at around 3.25am. The surges are mild, but consistently around 7 to 5 minutes apart from the get-go. I mention to Craig, \u201cI\u2019m trying not to sink into them yet. We don\u2019t want to have breech twins on the side of the Monash Freeway\u201d. So, I just focus on getting to the hospital, and we chat away about other things as if nothing is happening. Fast forward to just over an hour later and we come to a standstill on the Monash Freeway due to an accident. No worries. I sarcastically ask Craig, who had come along to my hypnobirthing classes a month before, \u201cSo, what do we do in the case of a double breech baby\u2019s choice birth on the side of the road?\u201d He casually replies with all the right answers and we have a slightly nervous laugh. About 15 minutes later we are back on the road and we eventually arrive at the hospital.<\/p>\n

I say to Craig when the main doors are shut, \u201cUh, where do we go?\u201d. We ring the number on our handy list of contacts (which we\u2019d packed!) and are advised to go through Emergency\u2026obviously. Craig suggests that he drop me there and park the car and then he\u2019ll bring the stuff. Nonsense. \u201cI want to walk\u201d. So, we find a park and I waddle with a soaked maternity pad from the car park, through Emergency, and then on the epic labyrinth to the birth suites (I swear this is a deliberate tactic to help in bringing baby down, so props to them for that!)\u2026having to stop a couple of times for strong surges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We arrive at the assessment unit and the midwife asks to have a look at the waters. \u201cOoh, lovely and pink\u201d she says. I breathe a sigh of relief that this is still the case, after the meconium curse with my first born. The midwife then sits me down to do a trace to see how everything is going. In the time it takes her to organise everything for the trace, I breathe through three surges. I inform the midwife with each surge, and also let her know that I am hypnobirthing and that I labour very quietly. She decides to take me straight across to the birth suites and not worry about a trace. I have no idea what time it is at this stage.<\/p>\n

More waddling.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d been to the birth suites so everything is quite familiar to me. I am feeling quite excited, confident, and calm at this point; we had arrived at the place where my babies would be born!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Have you heard about the Unicorn Ob?<\/h3>\n

I get Craig to check if our doula has responded yet\u2026nope. I meet my main midwife, Sharon (praise be to Sharon \u2013 she is AWESOME), a few other midwives pop in to say hello, including the head midwife on duty who questions my decision to decline the epidural. I let her know that\u00a0I am indeed \u2018declining\u2019, that I have discussed this at length with my Ob, and if she has any concerns to raise them with him.\u00a0 Sharon lets me know that my Ob is on his way. There are two midwives in the room now (I\u2019m sorry second midwife, I can\u2019t remember your name), and with my consent they set about getting a trace of the babies, and checking my blood pressure (which is slightly elevated, but fine). Baby B is easily found and is well, but there is some difficulty getting a good trace of Baby A, because at this point he is so low down in a breech position, so there is lots of fiddling. During all of this, I am continuing to have frequent and consistent surges, but they are still completely manageable simply by closing my eyes and doing my surge breathing. After each surge, I reopen my eyes and continue chatting. I am sitting upright on the bed.<\/p>\n

Still with no awareness of the time, my Ob arrives and says, \u201cSo, it\u2019s all happening then!\u201d in his calm and friendly way. Just one week prior, on leaving his office knowing that both babes were breech and I\u2019d decided to proceed with a vaginal birth I asked, \u201cSo, you\u2019re comfortable and confident with this approach, yeah?\u201d, and his reply was, \u201cI am if you are\u201d, and indicated that given I am not having an epidural, that it is his intention for the birth of both babies to be \u201chands off\u201d. YES! I feel a wave of relaxation wash over me when he arrives; a familiar face. I have this guy on my team for a reason. I did my research. He knows exactly what I want. He is skilled in vaginal breech birth and twin birth \u2013 this is it! It is really happening.<\/p>\n

Given that we still don\u2019t know exactly how Baby A is positioned, I consent to a vaginal exam so that we can be sure that there is no cord presenting. All good! And I am 4cm dilated. Eep! We also discuss the option of putting a clip on Baby A to monitor him. I say, \u201cI\u2019m not really comfortable with him having a clip on his head\u201d, and I\u2019m reminded it\u2019s actually his bottom that\u2019s coming out first! I feel more comfortable with this, and I want to ensure that both babies are happy in there, so Baby A has the clip put on. I have a cannula placed, as I\u2019d agreed to this ahead of time. My Ob then asks, \u201cHave you had breakfast?\u201d \u201cNo\u201d, I reply. \u201cWell, let me go arrange some for you\u201d. Sharon says that she can do it, and my Ob says, \u201cNo, I\u2019ll be back in a minute\u201d. Seriously? Who is this mythical Ob creature that has presented himself?! He returns saying that it\u2019s on its way and that he is on the ward and to call him whenever I need. From here on, my Ob shall be referred to as \u2018The Unicorn Ob\u2019.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Now, to steer in a slightly different direction for a moment, if any medical professionals would like a lesson in bedside manner, I suggest poking your head in on The Unicorn Ob and Sharon, because they seriously have this shit down! Respectful, gentle, kind, and considerate care. That\u2019s where it\u2019s at.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I have a bite to eat, and Craig ensures that I\u2019m well hydrated. At some stage my doula (Jo) had been in contact with Craig and he tells me that she is on her way; it is morning peak-hour, so it is going to take her awhile. I don\u2019t really require anything from anybody at this stage, so I feel perfectly fine that she hasn\u2019t arrived. Sharon suggests maybe having a sit on the birth ball. Yes! I LOVED the birth ball for my first birth, why didn\u2019t I think of that? So, I get on and start bouncing and doing figure eights with my hips. After a few minutes, I decide that the birth ball is shit and uncomfortable, and to be honest, I feel a bit annoyed. I walk around a little, but that\u2019s not comfortable either; I should mention that walking with two babies on board is uncomfortable at the best of times, so I\u2019m not surprised.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWould you like a shower?\u201d Sharon suggests. Oh, yes! THIS. I never got to experience labouring in the shower during my last birth so I\u2019m super excited at this point. Sharon leaves to find the waterproof monitor, but comes back empty handed. \u201cNot a problem, I\u2019ll just contact The Unicorn Ob and see if he\u2019s happy to have the monitors off while you have a shower\u201d. She returns. \u201cLet\u2019s get you in the shower! He said to take as long as you like\u201d. Of course he did, he\u2019s The Unicorn Ob. Sharon removes the monitor from Baby B, and the monitor for Baby A just hangs between my legs. I think about how glamorous this moment is, as I jump in the shower. Oh my! The water running over my body is EXACTLY WHAT I NEED. I rock back and forth under the shower head. During my surges, I bend my knees in a semi-squat position and do figure eights in an attempt to help Baby A move down. This feels amazing! It feels like my body is really doing something; I can feel my muscles working. The surges are quite intense now, but completely manageable. At times, Craig has the shower head and holds it close to my back, which feels lovely. Oh, remember how he\u2019d packed his bags earlier? Turns out his bag only contained \u2018smart casual\u2019 clothes! No boardies, no trackies, nothing shower suitable! So here he is, in the shower with me in his jeans! I look down to see that the clip from Baby A\u2019s bottom has fallen off. Craig lets Sharon know and she says not to worry about it, and that we can put a clip back on a bit later. So I continue in the shower, breathing through my surges \u2013 which feel quite close together \u2013 and swaying my hips.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Transition\u2026Oh, My!<\/h3>\n

All of a sudden, I begin to feel very hot, so ask Craig to turn the shower off. He grabs a towel to help dry me. \u201cOh god, I feel so hot, so hot\u201d, I repeat as we walk from the bathroom back toward the bed. \u201cGrab me a cold face washer\u201d, I demand. \u201cI\u2019m so hot\u201d, I repeat. \u201cI feel like I\u2019m going to vomit\u201d, I add. \u201cI\u2019m shivering\u2026I\u2019m hot\u2026where\u2019s the face washer\u2026I need a vom bag\u2026I feel like I\u2019m going to faint! I\u2019m going to pass out\u201d, I proclaim, all in the matter of seconds. Craig helps me onto a seat and gets Sharon. I see Sharon come in and I can tell that she\u2019s talking to me, because I can see her mouth moving, but I can\u2019t hear what she\u2019s saying. \u201cI can\u2019t hear you. I\u2019m going to faint\u201d, I tell her. By this time, Craig has a cold face washer on the back of my neck and Sharon continues to say something. I finally begin to hear Sharon\u2019s words and everything returns to normal. (I don\u2019t realise it at the time, but this is transition). Sharon helps me put a robe on and to sit on the end of the bed, and I tell Craig that I want some music on, \u201cSomething without words, \u2018Tranquil Chambers\u2019\u201d. Sharon calmly lets me know that she is just popping out to organise a few things (clearly, she realises I\u2019m in transition). I say, \u201cI really need to pee\u201d. Craig helps me to the loo, and Sharon leaves the room. I sit down on the loo, and the pee is sweet relief. Suddenly, my body starts bearing down and I let out a primal, guttural, moan. Sharon bursts into the room and helps me to stand up, while having a look. She calmly says, \u201cWell, I can see your baby\u2019s bottom, so I\u2019ll just put my hands underneath you and we\u2019ll help you back into the room. You don\u2019t want to have this baby on the toilet!\u201d. Nope; I really do not!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Next thing I know, I\u2019m up on the bed. The back of the bed has been raised so that I can kneel on the bed with my arms over the top. Craig is right next to me, gently touching my arm. Another intense surge and my body again bears down accompanied by an almighty moan. Rest. I turn around and demand, \u201cWhere\u2019s The Unicorn Ob\u201d. \u201cHe\u2019s on his way, don\u2019t worry, he\u2019ll be here any minute\u201d, says Sharon very calmly. Cue the return of The Unicorn Ob. Upon seeing him I completely relax, because I know I\u2019m in good hands and that me and my babies are safe. Another bearing down surge. I have my arms over the back of the bed and with the intensity of the surge the muscles in my arms and hands are stiff; I manage to consciously soften them as I let out another moan. Rest. I hear Sharon, The Unicorn Ob and Craig all telling me that I\u2019m doing a great job (thanks guys! I am aren\u2019t I?!). During one intense surge, I tell the room excitedly, \u201cOoh, I can feel the burn\u201d. They repeat that I\u2019m doing a great job. To be honest, I\u2019m again not aware of time, but before too long and less than a handful of surges later Baby A is out (frank breech and 11 minutes after transition)! He is passed up through my legs and I hold him as he lets out a cry. His cord remains intact, as I turn around and recline on the bed with him on my chest. One down, one to go!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
\n

Twin A is born!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

The Unicorn Ob places his hands gently on my tummy and ensures that Baby B is in a good position to come out (eg: not transverse). All good. My surges continue and after a few minutes Baby A\u2019s cord is clamped and cut. No rest. I continue to bear down with each surge, while holding Baby A in my arms. Before long Baby B begins to emerge; as my membranes release, Sharon has to jump out of the way to avoid wearing my amniotic fluid. At some stage, Craig takes Baby A (did I mention that I have absolutely no idea of time?!) as I continue to bear down sitting on the edge of the bed. The room is calm and quiet (you\u2019d not know \u2013 and I certainly didn\u2019t \u2013 that there were 5 midwives, The Unicorn Ob, two paediatricians, and Craig). The Unicorn Ob suggests calmly that it\u2019s time to get this baby out. I have no idea that Baby B has emerged with both feet out (double footling) and at this stage he is out up to his underarms; this meant that his cord has been compressed for several minutes. The Unicorn Ob asks if I am able to push a little, and I try, but I don\u2019t have the urge\u2026my body has been doing everything without any conscious thought from me up until this point and I feel very confused as to how to do it. I say, \u201cI can\u2019t do it\u2026it doesn\u2019t feel right without the urge\u201d. The room remains calm, and The Unicorn Ob then suggests that I stand up, ready for the next surge. So, with an arm around Craig and the other around Sharon I am lifted up, and with one final surge, Baby B slips out into the world with his arms over his head like Superman, a mere 12 minutes after Baby A! Baby B needs assistance with breathing given the way he was born, so we agree to clamp and cut his cord so that he can be seen to by a paediatrician. While this is happening, I have Baby A back on my chest, but I cannot stop looking at Baby B, just at the foot of the bed, repeatedly asking, \u201cIs he okay? How is my baby?\u201d. Sharon replies, \u201cYour baby is good, but just focus on the baby in your arms\u201d. A couple of minutes later, Baby B is brought to me and he is completely perfect! I breathe them both in \u2013 I\u2019ve just given birth to TWO babies\u2026TWO BREECH babies\u2026without medical intervention or medication\u2026and remember the monitors\u2026they never made it back on! Boom! It feels amazing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A Breech Twin Birth Rockstar<\/h3>\n

The Unicorn Ob says, \u201cYou are a birthing Rockstar!\u201d Why yes, yes I am! With my two healthy boys on my chest, Sharon and the Unicorn Ob discuss placenta birth with me. For a few reasons \u2013 precipitous labour (turns out my first stage was 2hrs & 25mins, second stage was 23 mins); low iron; two placentas \u2013 I agree to a shot of Syntocinon to birth my placentas. One or two surges later, the placentas come out fused together. The Unicorn Ob explains that I have a small second-degree tear, which requires some stitches. I ask Craig if he is still happy with the names we have chosen, and he is. So, I announce that Baby A is \u2018Arlo Menzies\u2019, and Baby B is \u2018Odin Finch\u2019. Craig sits down with Odin for some skin-to-skin, while I give Arlo his first feed. And then we swap because WE HAVE TWO BABIES!<\/p>\n

(Unbeknownst to me, the Unicorn Ob had asked Craig if he could take some pics for us with our camera\u2026turns out he is also the keen photographer, and captured some very special first pics for us)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\"\" \"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Not too long later (because clearly, time is meaningless to me) our doula, Jo, walks in to find that she\u2019s missed the whole thing. Jo proclaims, \u201cI can hear two babies!\u201d and begins to apologise for not making it. But, it doesn\u2019t matter. Seeing her walk in at that moment after everything progressed as beautifully, calmly, and with the reverence that it had from those caring for me, just seemed right (it also meant, that she was able to support us for the rest of the day as we figured out what to do with two babies, which was perfect). Jo takes over camera duties, as Craig helps weigh our boys and dress them (I should note that Odin, who was born second, was actually 300gm heavier than Arlo). I take the opportunity to have a shower and begin to process the truly amazing \u2013 kick-arse \u2013 birth I\u2019d just had.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

My recipe for success<\/h3>\n

Now, without getting too \u2018woo\u2019 on you I want to share my feelings about my birth, retrospectively. Having the birth of Arlo and Odin unfold the way it did has made me feel like a new woman \u2013 both physically and spiritually\/emotionally. I feel more confident, strong, resilient, and brave. This new feeling has changed the way I approach parenting, changed the way I approach my business and changed my outlook in life more generally. Why? Because I totally rocked my birth! I faced the challenges head-on, researched the shit out of everything, and made decisions that were right for me and my babies, with my unique set of circumstances. Being surrounded by a team of caregivers who trusted me and the process of birth, who treated me with respect, who treated the process of birth with reverence, and who remained calm and present with the needs of me and my babies truly made a difference to my outcomes<\/em>. Had I chosen a different path, had different people caring for me, gone with the flow, blindly followed the protocols, and not done my research, I am absolutely certain that I would not have had the birth I did. So, if you\u2019re faced with challenges in your pregnancy and birth \u2013 be it multiples, GD, advanced maternal age, protocols, hyperemesis, pre-term birth (and I had ALL of these) \u2026whatever else \u2013 I urge you to do your research, choose your caregivers wisely, back yourself, ask questions (use your B.R.A.I.N.), and trust your instincts.<\/p>\n
