On Your Terms

Often we label a women's home birth going well as a lucky one when in fact it couldn't be more opposite. Tune in to hear about my thoughts on why physiologic birth is the norm and when it goes well it's because it was designed to, not because we get lucky. Thanks for listening!

Story of Rebecca's preterm birth with her 4th child Paeonia. This story is so moving as she describes how she advocated for her daughter while she was giving birth to her in the system that she wanted so much to avoid. This episode is a little longer than my usual, it's really beautiful and inspiring and I do hope you al give this one a listen. 

I share more details about my very fast and also very traumatic birth. I share details about how some of those who I shared my birth story with dismissed that it was traumatizing because it was so fast and undisturbed. Speaking of undisturbed, we have a little 6 year old visitor that I considered editing out but decided her sweetness added much to the recording. 

In this episode we talk with mama to be Nicole about her decision to birth at home on her own terms. 

First of two episodes of a woman's journey to deciding to birth at home with a midwife.
