16. How to Identify Your Birth Type

You may have heard of Myers-Briggs, Enneagram or Love Language personality tests, but did you know your personality also affects your birth?  

One of the most important things we help our parents understand in their preparation for birth is how they uniquely see the world, how they interact with it, and how that very thing will influence their birth in many ways. Once they have clarity on how they see things and how their birth partner sees things, we explain that each member of their birth team will also introduce a new set of views based on their own life experiences. 

Knowing that they will have different expectations and visions of their birth than their care team based on their experiences and reactions in the world better prepares our parents for the conversations they may need to have with the birth team.  Today on the Journey to Birth Podcast, we are going to talk about an aspect of birth preparation that is unique to the Natural Birth Compass program - your birth type.
