Today we have the honour and pleasure of chatting to Hazel Keedle once again on the podcast. Hazel is a lecturer at Western Sydney University and midwifery researcher who has primarily focused on women’s experiences of vaginal birth after caesarean and is now a lead researcher in the Birth Experience Study- the largest study on women’s experiences of maternity care in Australia. Since we last spoke Hazel has completed her PhD and is now an author with her newly released book Birth After Caesarean: Your Journey to a Better Birth. We spoke to Hazel way back in Season 1 and you can find this interview by searching for our 7th episode. 

In this episode we cover:

  • The inspiration for the book Birth After Caesarean: Your Journey to a Better Birth and what readers can expect to gain from reading it
  • Interesting preliminary observations from data collected from The Birth Experience Study Survey which had almost 9000 respondents
  • Feminism and birth and the impact of social media
  • Impact and importance of continuity of midwifery care
  • Encouraging words of advice for midwives and student midwives navigating fragmented care in our Australian maternity system
