Listen Later

In this episode of The 40 & Unfiltered Podcast, Lauren Loparo shares her experience with natural birth at a birthing center which was intense and not at all what she expected.


Her first birthing experience was in a hospital, so she's able to give us her thoughts on both.


Was this natural birth orgasmic like she saw on Instagram? What were the key differences between the two experiences?

Hit play to get all your questions answered! And you're gonna laugh way more than you'd think, starting about 20 minutes in!

We talk about her care leading up to the birth, the entire birth experience, and her follow-up care afterward.
