Awesome Living with Gwen Aussem

My first pregnancy was high risk, and the birth was in a hospital hooked up to a heart rate monitor and an IV. For baby #2, I was lucky that he wasn't high risk so home birth was an option. I'm so happy I went this route. It was peaceful, dare I say relaxing (for most of the time), and an overall uplifting experience I highly recommend.
