• Jolien’s 2.5hr Home Birth in the Netherlands after Hospital Transfer with her first.

  Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Jolien.Jolien is a mama of two from the Netherlands. Today she shares her two birth stories, her first that was an intended home birth but became a transfer after 4 days of prodromal labour with everything happening that she did not want.If you do not wish to hear this first story then fast forward to her second redemptive home birth at around 30min into the episode. When becoming pregnant again Jolien and her husband decided that with their second pregnancy the only thing they could change to hopefully have a better birth outcome was to employ a doula. Because of her they ended up with an independent caseload midwife this time at 30 weeks pregnant. And she gave Jolien all the information and positive energy that she needed. This time Jolien ended up having a 2.5 hour birth at home in her bath without any intervention. The midwife only walked in as the head of Jolien's baby was born. Jolien’s story really shows the importance of choosing your birth support wisely and that employing your own can make a world of difference. Want to work with Anna or join The Sacred Birth Worker Mentorship?Find Anna’s Website, about her Mentorship & How to Work with Her, as well as all Links & Resources she mentions in the episode here:www.sacredbirthinternational.com/links-podcast

• Former Midwife Vicky’s Free Birth in a Bell Tent in her Garden

  Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have VickyVicky is a stay at home mama from South Wales, UK.She’s a former midwife who had a deep rooted fear of entering into the maternity care system and actually never did after she completed her studies.Today she supports women on their journey back to health through Ayurvedic lifestyle coaching and Nutritional Therapy. She caters for women’s wellness retreats and run workshops on natural health and breast massage. She has a passion for helping women reconnect with the wisdom they already carry, to feel empowered, thrive, and truly take ownership of their well-being. When becoming pregnant herself she felt that the only way to achieve a natural birth was to relearn what birth is supposed to look like in the wild. Her pregnancy was spent developing her intuition, facing her fears and was guided by a deep trust in nature and the wisdom of the body. She decided to freebirth her baby at home. Equipped with both the scientific evidence and her intuition behind her, she knew it was not only safe, but the right path for her. She had a small space to navigate, living in a self built tiny house, which she solved by having the water birth she had dreamed about in a bell tent in the woods  on Halloween morning. It was magical. Curious about Vicky?

  Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have LauraLaura is a mother of 3 from just outside of Indianapolis, Indiana. She gave birth to her first two children in the hospital, unmedicated, with midwifery care, but she realized after her 2nd birth that the hospital system was still getting in the way of her achieving her ultimate dreams for birth. She decided on a homebirth for her 3rd baby, and despite moments of doubt along the way, she ultimately birthed her baby in water, entirely on her own terms, into her own hands, in the comfort of her bedroom.Laura works as a bridal hairstylist and as a marriage and family therapist. She wishes people gave as much intention to their births as they do to their weddings, and she recognizes the reverberating power that a connected birth experience can have on the family system.
