  • Giving birth naturally is a beautiful thing...IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING (which is something I didn't know the first time around). I wish that I had known these things when I was giving birth the first time so that I could avoid birth trauma.
    Here are my top 10 tips to consider when preparing for birth.

    Yes, Guys! She helped me a lot. I went through 10 hours of contractions with no medication. She is the truth. I got all of my tips from her videos. I'm sure the classes she offers are heaven-sent. I will take a class the next time. 💗

    Your videos, I wasn't able to have the home birth i dreamed of 1st time around, but i was able to labor at home and give nonmedicated birth on my side.. i never planned to go to the hospital, but I was able to navigate the process with grace and confidence because of your advice.😊

    Thank you for this video! My first birth was traumatic. My second was an amazing experience in the middle of the night uninterrupted. I thought I was more educated and ready to advocate going into my 3rd. I was firm with my no’s…..until I wasn’t. When it came time to push, I felt pressure to have them break my waters and to push on my back because the midwife said it was easier for her. My nurse actually stopped me twice and said no Jen…you said you wanted to push on your side. Are you sure? Short story long, his heart rate dropped being on my back and came out unresponsive. He was okay after some help from the nurse and respiratory doc team but I felt like a failure and kicked myself for not listening to my body and advocating. If God graces me with another baby, I will definitely be doing things differently. I will also make sure my husband speaks up as well! Thanks again for all the information! ❤

    Im currently pregnant with my rainbow baby. I had a C-section with my first. I have gestational diabetes and my doctors think i may have to have a repeat C-section. I really want a vbac. So far ive been losing weight and not gaining. Pre-pregnancy i struggled to lose weight now it melts off like butter😅. Im just hoping i can have the birth i always dream of.

      Doctors push for c section just because the sky is blue! gd is not an automatic reason to need one

  • @bethanyostrom8796

    It's interesting because I'm normally very petite (102-105ish pounds), and I've gained exactly 50 pounds with all 3 of mine. I never worried about it, but thankfully I had no problem loosing it by 2 months postpartum with the first two. I'm due in a few days with our 3rd, so I expect it to be a similar experience.
    I actually wouldn't mind staying closer to 112-120 if it was because of having increased muscle tone.

    I just attended a birth where the dads family being present led mom to have an unexpected c section that was no emergency. Everytime dads family inserted themselves her labor stalled, contractions stopped and she started to close back up. I wish moms didnt have to learn this the hard way.
