Curious about what it’s really like to give birth at a birth center—and be home just four hours later?

In today’s episode, Chelsea sits down with Brittany, a mom of three, to share her full birth story—from her water breaking in the middle of the night to delivering her baby in a calm, midwife-supported setting. She opens up about choosing a birth center after two hospital births, how this third experience felt completely different, and what it’s like to know with confidence that your family is complete.

This honest conversation is full of insights for moms planning their next birth or wondering if a third child is the right choice for their family.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • What a real birth center delivery looks like from start to finish
  • How this mom went from 6 cm to baby in 40 minutes
  • Why she chose a birth center over a hospital for baby #3
  • What it’s really like to go home just hours after giving birth
  • The biggest differences between hospital vs. birth center care
  • Real talk on the logistics of a third child (cars, beds, travel, and more)
  • Why this final birth felt like the most healing of all

Whether you're considering a birth center, thinking about baby #3, or wondering how you’ll know when you’re done growing your family—this episode offers clarity, relatability, and practical insight.
