Sarabeth’s first birth did not go as planned. She had originally wanted a homebirth, but her baby was very “overdue”. Even after trying to induce labor naturally, the baby just did not want to come out. Finally after transferring to the hospital for some Pitocin, the baby was born vaginally. Sarabeth knew she wanted something different for the second baby, so she found a homebirth midwife, but ended up transferring to a different midwife in her third trimester when she started to feel over-managed. She went on to have a beautiful birth at home, in the water, which is what she had always dreamed of. Sarabeth shares the importance of advocating for yourself during pregnancy, and making sure you research before making any decisions.
