Expecting your first child can be an emotional and overwhelming time in your life, particularly when you’re considering all the varying birthing options that are now available.

Everyone seems to have an opinion or experience they wish to share with you. However, listening to medical specialist advice can also be very helpful when devising your birthing plan.

In 2019, 1 in 4 women had an instrumental vaginal delivery for their first birth.

How do you know what to do and what to expect from a vaginal birth?

Today on Meditalk I speak with Dr Adam Gubbay who is an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at St John of God Hospital in Subiaco to better understand what to expect from a vaginal delivery.
