Freebirthing in the Dominican Republic


Listen Later

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Rocio.
Rocio is a mama of one originally from Cuba, a citizen of the US now living in the Dominican Republic.
She's a writer, seeker, and huge birth nerd.
Flying out to have an autonomous birth in the Dominican Republic at 38 weeks was a big part of her life long search for true freedom.
She is a political refugee from Cuba and the daughter of an ObGyn Mother.
The themes of fleeing a dictatorial government, immigration, and what freedom really means, led her on a deep spiritual search early in her life which contributed to her choice to birth autonomously with only her partner in the room.
She's currently writing a memoir on these topics, and deeply enjoying her first year and a half of motherhood in the Dominican Republic.
In today's episode she shares her freebirth story with us.
Curious about Rocio? Find her on IG as @living.on.spirit and @mothera.co
