116- What He Learned About Birth Changed Everything: A Partner’s Perspective with Jacob Dubois

What happens when a skeptical partner actually starts learning about birth?For Jacob Dubois, it changed everything.In this episode of Made for Birth, I’m joined by Jacob, author of Why Home Birth, to talk about birth from a perspective we don’t hear nearly enough: the partner’s.Jacob shares what it was like supporting his wife through homebirth, the fears and questions he had along the way, and how learning more about birth physiology, risk, and the maternity care system completely changed the way he viewed birth.We talk about what partners actually need to know to support the women they love, why education matters just as much for them, and what happens when fear is replaced with understanding.And while Jacob’s story centers around homebirth, this conversation is NOT just for homebirth families.If you’re preparing for a VBAC, HBAC, homebirth, hospital birth—or simply want your partner to understand birth on a deeper level—this is the episode to send them.Because your partner doesn’t have to start out completely on board with your birth choices. But they DO need the opportunity to learn, ask questions, understand the options, and become an informed part of your birth team.🎧 Send this one to your partner and listen together.What He Learned About Birth Changed Everything: A Partner’s Perspective with Jacob DuboisConnect with Jacob Dubois:📲 Instagram: @apogee.dad📖 Get Jacob’s book, Why Home Birth?: How Hospitals Turned Birth into a Medical Procedure — and What the Evidence Actually Shows, on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Why-Home-Birth-hospitals-procedure/dp/B0GQNPBDSZ🌐 Learn more about Why Home Birth?: https://whyhomebirthbook.comSend me a text if you have episode request.
