In this episode of No Textbook for Life, my husband and I share the raw, real story of our first home birth — and what made it so different from our first hospital birth.

We talk about why we chose to have a home birth, what it was really like during labor and delivery, how my husband handled being my main support, and what recovery looked like afterward. From the emotional highs to the hard lessons, we’re opening up about everything we wish we’d known before choosing a home birth.

If you’re pregnant, postpartum, or just love authentic birth stories, this episode gives you an honest look at what to expect and how to prepare. 💛
