Description

In this heartfelt episode, Sarah interviews Kelly, a two-time Hearth and Home Midwifery client, who shares the stories of her two very different births. Kelly describes her long first labor that ultimately led to an empowered hospital transfer, where the skills and confidence she gained through midwifery care helped her advocate for herself and her baby. She then contrasts this with her fast, intuitive, and deeply supported home birth with her second child, which unfolded peacefully in the comfort of her bedroom. Throughout the conversation, Kelly reflects on the importance of informed choice, trust, and thoughtful prenatal care. Her stories offer warmth, honesty, and inspiration to anyone exploring their birth options.
