Holistic Pregnancy

The Birth You’ll Regret


Listen Later

In this episode, we explore how indecision — not emergencies or complications — shapes birth outcomes more than most people realize. We talk about the difference between passive and intentional pregnancy, how “we’ll see” often defaults to institutional momentum, and why decisions are still being made even when we think we’re postponing them. We break down how small, early choices quietly compound, why regret after birth is usually about misalignment rather than pain, and how to approach decision-making with gentle urgency — without pressure or panic. We close with a reflection to help you notice where you may be delaying choices that deserve your attention now.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Passive vs intentional pregnancy
  • How default systems shape birth when we don’t decide
  • Why “we’ll see” often isn’t neutral
  • The role of timing in birth decisions
  • Gentle urgency without fear or rigidity
  • A closing reflection on postponed decisions
