What would you do if your baby came so fast… there was no time to make it to the hospital?
In this unforgettable, heart-melting birth story, My Essential Birth Mama Karlen shares her journey with us through a challenging pregnancy, an unexpected early labor after planning for induction, and a completely unplanned roadside birth with only her husband by her side. From the moment she realized, “I’m doing this right now,” to the incredible birth that follows, I know you're going to love this birth story as much as I do!!
I absolutely loved chatting with Karlen and walking through her birth story with her. As a clinical psychologist, she shares how her mindset, preparation, and deep trust in her body supported her through one of the most intense experiences of her life. This episode is a PROOF that birth doesn’t have to go according to plan to be empowering and unforgettable. I promise, this is an episode you do not want to miss! In fact, maybe play it over and over again as you come up to your birth!
Here's some deets from the episode:
• How Karlen navigated a challenging pregnancy and a late diagnosis of cholestasis
• What midwifery care looked like for her
• The daily habits, mindset work, and preparation that set her up for success and gave her a birth she loves!
• What happened when labor began earlier than expected
• The moment she realized her baby was coming FAST
• How her husband supported her through a roadside birth with no medical staff present
• What it was like emotionally to process a birth no one could have planned
• How her background in psychology shaped her birth experience
• Her most powerful advice for both moms and birth partners
