Doing It At Home - The Home Birth Podcast
Kids & Family:Parenting
Can you approach birth from both a statistics and research-driven mind as well as with an intention to connect more deeply spiritually?
YES!
And our birth story today is an example of that. Ashton Parker shares her home birth journey with us. First with a good hospital birth for her first child, which included 5 hours of pushing. Then considered another hospital birth for her second child, but after some research and statistics, landed on home birth.
Ashton also shares how listening to DIAH was such great birth prep (which overwhelms us with joy!). She and her husband Sean felt prepared and supported, with an experienced birth team backing them.
Ashton’s home birth took place on Christmas Day, which made it feel like a big party.
This is a great episode for those who like to do a lot of research and learn a lot about the birthing process and statistics. And at the same time, for those who see birth as an opportunity to draw closer to God (whatever that practice looks like for you).
