Doing It At Home - The Home Birth Podcast

Pregnant, Vegan and Planning a Home Birth with Jennifer Sanchez


Listen Later

In this episode we have another home birth story for you! This time we're talking with soon-to-be mom Jennifer Sanchez. Jennifer lives a vegan lifestyle and so we were super curious about how that has played into her pregnancy and home birth planning. Jennifer was a lot of fun to talk to and we're excited to have her on the Doing It At Home Podcast.

Jennifer is currently 6 months pregnant and planning for her first child. Her passion is about “helping others to live healthier, more compassionate and eco-friendly lives through the power of making plant-powered choices.” This has also influenced her process of choosing home birth.

After making the shift into self-improvement and personal development about 7 years ago, she’s been more focused on being informed and doing research when it comes to life decisions.

She watched the Business of Being Born (like a lot of our home birth moms...Ricki Lake if you’re out there, we want to talk with you!), and thought, “this is what it’s supposed to be like, this is motherhood.”

She reached out online for home birth resources and came across the Well Rounded Momma, a source of support and information for her throughout the pregnancy.

Jennifer is taking care of herself through meditation, taking time to bond with baby, prenatal yoga and releasing any fear-based thinking that’s going to create unnecessary anxiety around birth.

Wishing her and her partner Jose all the loving, peaceful vibes for welcoming their baby in the next few months. Stay tuned!
