Vitamin K, One tiny injection, One very big decision

Hey All,

In this episode we discuss the very loaded topic of the vitamin k injection. 

This has to be one of my most requested topics. I hope I've done it justice.

As always....no bias.....no judgement just all the information for you to decide whats right for your family.

The MANY studies mentioned in the episode are below if you want to have a look.

Full courses can be found on my website www.thismumhypnobirthing.com you can also find me on instagram @thismumhypnobirthing

Untill next week, take care
