My homebirth 💙
Many of you knew I was dreaming of a homebirth, and I got it! It's more dreamy and magical than I ever could have imagined. Proudest moment of my life ✨️
Unsure how much of this will make sense, but its written from gratitude, love and a little lack of time and sleep 😂 I had been planning a home birth the whole pregnancy and had told people, but I maybe hadn't let on just how important it was to me. My own fear of hospitals and my journey over the last few years of standing in my power meant I knew this was totally aligned. Years ago, if someone would had said about a homebirth, I would have felt fear of if anything went wrong. After years of working on myself and learning about how disconnected women have become from their bodies in birth, I stripped back what I thought I knew about birth and remembered. Remembered, how birth has been for years. Women listening to their bodies, being held by their loved ones and being guided by their own power, strength and intuition.
I had the most incredible support from my amazing midwife during pregnancy and also educated myself with support from and her incredible birthing course. Their support continued after the birth, too. I am deeply grateful for their support, love, understanding, and knowledge. They listened, heard, and supported me every step of the way.
I would highly recommend her support has guided me through knowledge but also guided me back to myself when needed. I am forever grateful 🙌 For education leading to birth, doula care and breastfeeding support, Thea is your woman.
