Guest bio (Morgan R.):  

Part of my story, through my own planned home birth, has been God showing me the innate design He has placed on pregnancy, birth, womanhood, and mothering. I have a deep respect for God’s design and trust in a Woman’s body. God revealed much of this to me through my own planned home birth that resulted in a cesarean, also known as a home birth cesarean. I’m excited to share and connect with other like-minded women.
