Irina had just moved to the United States from another country when she found out she was pregnant. Without knowing much about our maternal healthcare system, she gave birth in the local hospital, and the care she received was unimpressive to say the least (among the crazier parts of this story was a nurse telling her, mid-labor, that giving birth on her hands and knees would "kill her baby").
When it came time for her second birth, she decided she didn't need the healthcare system at all. And although she had a beautiful birth that time, she sorely lacked the right postpartum support.
Now, Irina is passionate about supporting other mothers in their postpartum time.
