Anchor of Hope Catholic Pregnancy and Childbirth Podcast - Episode 5: "My HOMEBIRTH After 2 C Sections" (Part 1 of 2)
And the grand finale of the birth stories of my children... the redeeming homebirth of baby #3! Again, this turned into another Part 1 and Part 2 so stay tuned for Part 2.
The video I took during my absolutely beautiful "moment with God" I referenced near the life-sized Crucifix at our Church can be viewed on this private YouTube link but just as a heads up, this is an unedited (kids playing in the background) beautifully raw video. There is also a brief Instagram reel I created sharing this story and included the video, with music in the background - it's a 90 second tear jerker!

Anchor of Hope Catholic Pregnancy and Childbirth Podcast - Episode 4: "My Attempted Homebirth After C Section" (Part 2 of 2)
Continuing the BIRTH STORY of baby #2! (Be SURE to go back and listen to Part 1 if you haven't already)
Here I share what all went into my decision to attempt a homebirth after a C Section. I went through most of my pregnancy planning to have a VBAC at the hospital but at 32 weeks, sudden Covid rules led to some research surrounding homebirth and I realized the many benefits and determined it to be my best chance at a successful VBAC. Enjoy!
