Yá’át’ééh! We are happy to announce the sixth release of our birthing series featuring our special guest, Karla Peaches. Ms. Peaches is a Diné woman, mother, doula, and peer lactation counselor. She tells all about the challeges she faced with being diagnosed with PCOS and navigating the health system to get the best care,  the last days with her grandmother, and grief.  Her story will be released in 3 parts: preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum. 
We appreciate Karla for sharing her experiences with us. The purpose of this series is to provide a space for birthing familes to share thier experineces to help other birthing families become more informed about the ways pregnancy and birthing can happen. 
Disclaimer: We’d like to let our audience know that these birthing stories include real people with real stories and may include topics on traumatic pregnancy and birthing experiences leading to loss of life, miscarriage, depression, suicide, and grief.
