Ep 9 | My Birth Story: A Planned Home Birth, Hospital Transfer, and Cuarentena
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, I share my personal birth story, starting with my home birth that took an unexpected turn when we had to transfer to the hospital (thankfully everyone was healthy).
I was inspired to share this part of my journey because there was so much I didn’t know going into it and my homebirth team made such a big difference along with my family and friends. I also share a bit about my postpartum / cuarentena period, where I leaned into Mexican cultura prioritizing rest, nourishment, and healing. This episode is rooted in my desire to share honestly so others feel more informed, empowered, and less alone in their own journeys.
Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, or simply curious about birth stories, I hope this episode meets you where you are.
I talk briefly about my debut childrens book, and if you’re interested see the link below:
