Introduction
Hello - I am pregnant with my third and last baby - my husband's very first child. I have a near 15-year gap between this child and my last. I just became curious about natural childbirth, began consuming the subject, and landed in the home bir
Have you given birth at home? With a midwife or without?
I've never given birth at home; never used a midwife.
What would you like to discuss at meetings?
Birthing options. South metro options and assistance.
Are you a childbirth professional?
No, although wouldn't I love to be!
What do you have to offer this group? What would you like to get from it?
I'm hoping to learn more about home birthing, so that we are prepared when the time comes. I certainly feel like an advocate of home birthing already!
What is your most profound birth memory?
When the doc on call (a woman) walked into my hospital room barefooted, turned down all the lights, turned up the heat, pulled a mirror to the foot of the bed, went to the side of the bed, and hooked my foot on her hip. After delivery of the placenta, she told me all about it, showed it to me, asked me if I wanted to touch it. I swore I'd never have a female doc (all the rumors). Now I swear I'll never use a man!
What Michelle is saying about this Meetup Group
I genuninely appreciated the candidness of the group. Hearing their birth stories, even the ones that didn't go smoothly, and how they had the backbone and courage to stand their ground and have the birth that they both wanted and also taking into consideration what nature wanted, was very informative, encouraging, empowering.
