This week while we are on summer vacation, catch up on all our podcast episodes. We have re-released one of our very first episodes... All about our birth stories.
This episode, we talk all about our different birth stories. With four kiddos between the two of us, we had VERY different labor and delivery experiences - from inductions and scheduled C-sections to VBAC and unplanned complications. Listen as we discuss ways to prepare for delivery but also how to prepare for the unexpected.
We love connecting with other mamas about their pregnancies, births, and parenting experiences. If you are interested in being on the podcast or providing topic ideas, message us at [email protected] or DM us on IG @thecradleandall.
