We’re taking it all the way back to where it started—our first birth story!
In this episode, we share what it was like doing a natural birth at a birthing center, having a midwife, and what we wished we knew beforehand.
From signs of early labor to hospital transfer, avoiding the cascade of interventions, and the emotional rollercoaster of delivery - this story is honest, unfiltered, and packed with lessons we didn’t even know we needed at the time.
Warning: if you're currently pregnant and want to protect your peace of mind you may NOT want to listen because this birth was a bit traumatic in a few ways. However, this is still a beautiful story about finding joy when things don't pan out the way you expect, which is an important part of becoming a balanced family.
In fact, it was this story that planted the seed in our hearts to become content creators.
