Our good friends Kelsha and Lexi have had some incredible birth experiences, and it was so much fun to chat with them about all things birth! In the first part of this interview, we discussed their perspectives about birth before getting pregnant, finding care providers, and what their prenatal care has been like with each of their providers. Tune in next week for even more from Kelsha and Lexi!
