During my pregnancy, I was obsessed with listening to positive birth stories and imagining what my own would be like and I'm so excited to share it all with you today. I recap all the nitty gritty details from the highs and lows of pregnancy to the unexpected twists and turns of my labor and delivery!

In this episode you'll hear:

  • How I decided between birthing at-home, in a birth center or at the hospital
  • What resources, courses, and classes *we* took to prepare
  • What expectations I had of my husband
  • The really important conversations we had before getting pregnant
  • How long it took for me to get pregnant
  • Tips for morning sickness
  • How we did our gender reveal
  • Why we chose to hire a doula
  • What my birth wishes were
  • My attempt to go unmedicated
  • All my desperate attempts to induce labor
  • How hypnobirthing helped me
  • The challenges I faced with my baby's position
  • What contractions / back labor felt like
  • What I used for pain management during labor
  • How I advocated for myself
  • And what happened immediately after delivery

I delve into the various stages of my pregnancy, the preparations my husband and I made, and the intense emotions that accompanied the journey. Despite the unexpected twists, the birth of my son was a profound and empowering experience.

This episode is not just a recount of my birth story but also a tribute to the incredible support from my husband, my doula, and my medical team. Whether you're a soon-to-be mom, a new mom, or someone who loves birth stories, I hope my journey brings you insight, hope, and maybe even some excitement for your own path to motherhood.

Links to things mentioned in the show:

  • Use Code 'JESSIJEAN' for 10% OFF >> The Birth Class For Couples - by Balanced Families. This course was a GAME-CHANGER for my husband and I and helped us understand our options for various ways of birthing, how to prepare for birth during pregnancy, labor 101, knowing our options / how to advocate for ourselves, pain management techniques, what to expect immediately after baby is born, and how your partner can best show up for YOU. It was AMAZZZZZING!
  • Expectful App - I loved the pregnancy and birth focused meditations, visualizations, and the hypnobirthing audio course inside this app.
  • Super Soft 'Lila' Labor Gown - I wanted to be as comfy as possible during labor and this gown was incredibly soft. I loved it!
