Empowered Birth, Love, and LifeEp 29 Anya CasteelLet me know what you think! If you want to email me visit my website so I can respond! The moment you are in Anya's presence it's like a familiar sense you can't put your finger on. She just feels like home. Her energy is so warm and inviting that it's so easy to open up around her. This is so important for birth. When you invite other people beside your partner into your birth space, you should feel safe and comfortable around them. In this episode we discuss Anya's life in Russia and how she found h...

I apologize for all the "likes" and "corrects" I say in this episode as I was just so freaking happy to be finally telling her story! The title says it all. This woman defied all the odds that are put on us as a birthing society from the medical system. Her first birth ending in an "emergency C Section" due to "failure to progress" at the hospital. She started with home birth, but when that 42 week date came...

From due dates to interventions, we are constantly being made to not trust birth and God's design for us and baby. My entire belief around birth has evolved the longer I have been a doula. I have witnessed abuse and medical gaslighting from hospitals, birth centers, and home birth practitioners, but I have seen the most incredible outcomes with the moms who TRUST and surrender the most. The mothers who really really don't want to mess with anything...

I had such a blast with this episode! I truly wanted to be candid and open and talk to her as if we were talking to our girlfriends about this topic! As women we are brought up to have so much shame around our vaginas and everything "down there". Even pooping is seen as a negative thing from when we are little. Monika has such a beautiful welcoming, warm, engaging, and safe energy to discuss these topics with...

Maybe you tested positive for GD? Maybe you had a C Section before? Maybe you tested positive for GBS? WHO CARES!!!! If you are a healthy well informed and empowered mama who takes good care of her body, you should not be treated any different than any other pregnant woman!

This is meant to educate and empower you! Maybe you will hear your own birth trauma in my story and find it healing to feel seen, heard, or validated. I find as a doula and healer of birth trauma in women, many of us have experienced so many similar abuses. I do have to take some accountability for what happened in my labor, and that is why I chose to do this episode. Looking back I could have...

From Castor Oil to Cervical ripening creams, they all have an effect on your labor in some way. There are many women who have inductions or take castor oil (for the "natural" induction) and have successful vaginal births. Is that the true goal? How was the baby affected? Blood Pressure? Length of labor? True experience? Did you feel rushed? On a clock? Gas lit into "progressing your labor" because your prodromal labor was taking too long? Were you...

Empowered Birth, Love, and LifeEp 19 The Forgotten 3rd Stage of LaborLet me know what you think! If you want to email me visit my website so I can respond! Many of us are taught to think of birth being "finished" once the baby comes out. Not many people understand the 3rd stage of labor or how to continue advocating for yourself in this stage. As a doula, I see most of the hospital trauma in this stage. The baby is separated from mom, the cord is cut entirely too soon, the placenta is yanked out of mom, and the dreadful aggressive and completely unnecessary fundal massage. The...

Your birth guest list (not just your team but the other people you want to invite) can make or break your home birth. Having too many people there can put a LOT of pressure on a laboring mom to progress or to not let out noises she needs or go inward. Too much distraction at your birth can disrupt the hormone flow. From family like mother or sister to the best friend, any and everyone coming to support...

Empowered Birth, Love, and LifeEp 17 Prodromal LaborLet me know what you think! If you want to email me visit my website so I can respond! This is one of the most common reasons for transfer. The exhaustion that days or even weeks of these intense sensations brings is a lot if you don't have the tools to navigate. Get a heating pad, a big jug of water, some snacks, a warm bath, a glass of wine.... whatever you can do to make yourself stay comfortable and relaxed enough to go back to sleep if it starts in the middle of the night. During...

I would hear this word all the time when I was pregnant with my 1st. I never fully understood it until I witnessed pregnancy after pregnancy or birth after birth and I would witness a mom either get in her own way and have to transfer or truly surrender and magic would happen. This all starts before conception! Learning how to truly trust your body is the greatest gift you can give yourself in this life. Not just...

This is something as mothers we experience and it's not talked about openly because I think as a society we have to appear to have it all together as mothers. Let me tell you as a doula and lactation counselor, we do NOT have it all together and THAT IS SO SO SO NORMAL! I hope this episode helps you feel seen and heard.

From the sound bowls and gongs that her amazing husband was playing, to the indigenous midwife (student midwife) that attended this birth, Erin's birth was nothing short of a ceremony. How all birth should be in my opinion. Erin's birth started with PROM (premature rupture of the membranes ... aka her water breaking) and thankfully I had taken many courses on how to assist birth that begins like this.

No. I think they are following protocol to cover their butts, and they just trust medicine and believe birth is a dangerous event verses a natural physiological thing that needs help with natural physiological things when it does needs help. They definitely don't believe hands off approach is the best approach. From endless ultrasounds, 5 minute prenatal visits, inductions at 39 weeks...

From generational trauma passed down from grandmother to mother to you, or your best friend who experienced abuse from her practitioner, birth trauma is shared all too freely and without thought to the person receiving that story.
