Description

This episode is part 2 of Baby Bird #2’s birth story. I’m comparing my first daughter’s birth with this one, laying out all the practical tips and gospel principles that helped my second birth experience go SO much smoother than my first.


My biggest takeaway? Everything is a choice. The noises you make during labor are a choice. The way you think about pain is a choice. The way you treat your spouse during a contraction is a choice. And I want to choose Jesus Christ's way in every circumstance, unconditionally.


Resources Mentioned:

  • The Bradley Method (birth course for couples)
  • Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn
  • The Untethered Soul by Michael Alan Singer


Scripture References:

  • Matthew 4:1–11 (Tempted while fasting)
  • Matthew 14:13 –14 (John the Baptist’s death)
  • Luke 22:49 –51 (Healing the soldier)
  • John 19:26 –27 (Entrusting Mary’s care to John)
  • Luke 23:34 (Forgiving crucifiers)
  • Matthew 5:44 –48 (verses about showing unconditional love and kindness)
