350: HOME BIRTH STORY: The 40-Hour Home Birth That Almost Wasn't with Josephine Breen
How can you utilize the power and intention of prayer for your birth?
Regardless of your faith, setting intentions for your birth experience can be a big part of preparation for the experience.
Today’s guest, Josephine Breen, weaves her faith into her birth story of her daughter Myriam. Josephine was born at home, and always remembers her mother being positive and open around the topic of birth. Then at 12 years old, Josephine got to witness the birth of her sister.
Josephine walks us through her pregnancy and birth, including a lot of the curve balls thrown in along the way.
Things we talk about in this episode: military family, being born at home yourself and then choosing home birth to have your children, education for your birth partner, preeclampsia, membrane sweeps, power of prayer, long labor without a lot of sleep, cervical lip, fetal ejection reflex, having community to support you, letting go when labor gets hard
