Each episode features candid interviews with women who have experienced breech birth firsthand, whether at home, in the hospital, planned or unexpected. While many stories are empowering and transformative, some also speak to the grief, challenges, or trauma that can accompany breech presentation. Through honest storytelling, this podcast challenges the fear-based narrative surrounding breech birth and explores what it means to reclaim autonomy, intuition, and trust in the birthing process. If you’re an expectant parent, health care provider, birth worker or simply curious about the diverse experiences of birth, this is a space for connection, courage, and transformation. Join your host, Sasha Hopkins as we journey with each woman and learn more about the diverse range of experiences.

Andrew was the medical co-director of maternity services at the Royal Hospital for Women in Randwick, Sydney, a tertiary maternity service where 4100 babies are born each year. He did his training in Newcastle, NSW, Australia and worked there for 23 years. During his time, he developed a strong interest in models of maternity care that supported normal birth, hence the focus on midwifery teams, primary midwifery, midwifery group practices and home birth. He has had a clinical, research and didactic interest in any area of obstetrics which minimises interventions and maximises the possibility of a safe and normal birth.

 

Since the planning of the term breech trial(1996) he has looked at various ways of maintaining the capacity to offer vaginal breech birth where appropriate. A large part of this has involved looking at ways to increase the possibility of physiological breech birth. Andrew has research interests in statistics particularly the area of formal causal inference using observational data. Since resigning from his role at the Royal Hospital for Women, he has continued in teaching and research initiatives.
