About this episode
Episode 3 of the BEarth Podcast I discuss why there is no way I would have ever had an Ultrasound during my pregnancies if I had of known what I know now.
I have weighed up the risks and the benefits and can now make a conscious and informed decision, with the information that should have been provided to me at the time.
So because this information isn't being offered to pregnant women - I have shared it for you. And provided plenty of links for further reading too!
