My brain is on a two hour feeding schedule so this episode if this feels slightly chaotic and manic… it’s most likely because it is!!I am still recovering from my labor and recording this was a very cathartic experience, if you take away one thing from this — it’s that there is no such thing as a birth plan. Your baby will choose the way they want to enter the world and you’ll just have to roll with the punches.
