Our Homebirth Highlights to - Help You Have a Better Birth
Giving birth is a pivotal time in a birthing person’s life, but it’s often overshadowed by the focus that’s put on either being pregnant or the new baby. Baby showers, maternity photo shoots, and setting up the nursery seem to outshine the preparations for the actual labor and birth, although every person who has ever given birth knows how impactful that process is.
In Kumbay’all episode 61 Amanda and Rebecca share the highlights of their homebirth stories and the key things they learned along the way.
In this episode Amanda and Rebecca discuss:
Their homebirth stories and how all three were different
What they wish they considered when selecting a midwife
Who they would have added to their birth team
Misconceptions that they had (and most women have!)
What they would have done differently
We hope this episode provides helpful tips, insight, and encouragement to you. And we hope that sharing our birth stories helps you in your journey!
