Description

In this week’s episode, I’m sharing the three biggest reasons I see birth plans fall apart (and how to fix them before you’re in labor). Drawing from my experience as both a nurse and a doula, we’ll talk about what it really means to have a rightly ordered relationship with your provider, how to restore trust in your body’s God-designed ability to give birth, and why “winging it” can leave you disappointed in your birth experience.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • Why your provider shouldn’t be the ultimate authority over your birth decisions
  • How cultural fear of birth shapes your mindset (and what to do about it)
  • Practical ways to strengthen your belief in your body’s God-given ability to birth
  • Why “winging it” can lead to regret and what healthy birth preparation really looks like
  • How surrender and faith fit into the unpredictable parts of your birth story
