Surrendered Birth Stories

060 I Trusting God Through Life's Twists and Turns (with Meghan Dougherty)


Listen Later

How much change can you handle in a matter of a few months? Getting married, getting pregnant, moving houses, getting locked down for Covid…what a whirlwind of change Meghan and her husband experienced all in a matter of a few months! Add nausea and extreme fatigue due to anemia of pregnancy onto that and it’s sure to throw anybody for a loop. Also, did you ever think that epidurals could work “too” well? Did you know they could have side effects that last beyond labor and birth? All of this and more as Meghan shares her stories with us today, and how she had to learn to tell God her specific desires and then trust Him with what He deemed best in His love and care for her and her family.
