In this episode, we pick up right where we left off — deep in labor, hanging on by a thread (and an epidural), and doing everything we said we didn’t want to do. Because when it comes to childbirth, your “birth plan” is more like a suggestion… and the universe might just laugh in your face.

We talk through:

• The one thing I swore I wouldn’t do… and why I had to do it anyway
• The moment things got scary — and bloody — fast
• What surprised us most about pushing, delivery, and those final minutes
• Meeting our son for the first time 
• How Alfie and Chloe reacted when we brought him home 
• And why it’s true what they say: birth is messy, magical, and nothing like the movies

This is the raw, honest, “we still can’t believe that happened” episode. We’re sharing the pain, the panic, the power, and the quiet after — when it was just us and this brand new little person we somehow made.
