19: Natural vs Ideal In Birth and Motherhood with Chloe S. Campbell

Like many pregnant people, Chloe Campbell (She/Her) spent a lot of time and energy connecting to her body and her baby. Culturally we idealize “natural” birth when we mean an unmedicated, vaginal birth. In this episode we talk about this ideal and how it morphs and changes once we give birth, and all along the way no one really considers the pregnancy. It’s all about the baby. Speaking of babies, you may hear some backup vocals from Chloe’s incredible one year old daughter Campbell during the episode.

Chloe hails from London, UK. She has lived in NYC for 10 years and guesses now she can call it home! She is a performer who has been in multiple musicals in London's West End and on Broadway. In addition to being the mother of Campbell she is one of the hosts of the podcast Mutha... Chloe was five months pregnant when we went into lockdown in NYC and has a lot to say when it comes to being pregnant, giving birth and parenting through a pandemic!
