My Dream Home Birth Story

In this episode, I share my most recent birth story, which was a home birth. I discuss the differences between my first hospital birth and second home birth, highlighting the beauty and benefits of giving birth at home.

I share about the challenges and emotions experienced during my pregnancy, including the waiting game of going past my due date (42 weeks!). I also share the methods I tried to naturally induce labor and the intense and fast labor I experienced at home.

Sharing the importance of having a supportive team, including a doula, and the joy and empowerment of giving birth in the comfort of your own home.


*These are my own personal experiences and feelings, opinions
