108: When Self-Advocacy Is Your Only Option - Part 1 (with Balt and Miriam Peña) [Hyperemesis Gravidarum, Hospital Transfer, First Time Mom]

from Surrendered Birth Stories: Your Christian Birth Story Podcast

I’ve heard of many moms who plan an unmediated hospital birth for their first, and then some who even plan a birth center birth for their first, and then the handful of moms who plan a home birth for their first, but it’s rare I find somebody who plans a free birth for their first.

Her first birth was 49 hours long and not anything like she had planned, and while at one time she would have seen that as a disappointment and remained in a place of bitterness, the Lord has since revealed to her His purpose in it all. Tune in next week for part 2 of their story!Send us Fan MailSupport the show*Online Course is $50 off this week only!
