My labor & delivery story!

Around 3am on dec 9th I went into labor and had no idea. I was asleep and thought it was false labor. Finally around 5-530am I couldn’t take anymore and asked my husband to run a bath so I can calm the false labor down. He says “wait how do you know this is false labor” lol whole time he thinks I’m in labor. Used the bathroom before entering the tub and had my bloody show & then I realized I was in full blown labor. Called my midwives and said I wasnt going to make it to the birthing center, felt like she was on her way out. I live on the third story of an apartment and my toddler was asleep with no one to watch her. Wasn’t going to make it. At 8:26am she was born in my bathtub & it was the most incredible empowering feeling! #womenaregoddesses

No I just called my midwives and they came to my home! 😁 I also do a lotus birth so the placenta stays attached until it falls off. So no cord clamping!

Wow!!!! Oh my I totally want this to happen for me I wish!!!! Wow that’s wonderful! Have you done that with all your kids? How long does it take to fall off and where do you put it until it does fall off?

Well done! Congratulations 🥳

That picture is unbelievable. It captured all the emotions that everybody in your household must have felt that day. The story behind it is even more incredible. I’m so glad you have Peanut to have a place to share your experience and picture with a lot of women that truly appreciates or need to see how truly magical labor is and how remarkable a woman’s body is. I suppose other social media would have been just fine, but Peanut is for moms :) Thank you for sharing. Btw you probably get this often, but you kind of remind me or could be Alicia Key’s sister..just saying. Lolol. Netflix has a movie coming out that is opposite of your experience and I don’t know how it will be received by audiences 🤷🏻‍♀️ Anyway, thanks again for sharing and congrats! Happy Holidays!

Absolutely! I want women to know and understand that labor is suppose to be a magical experience! It has and still is being taken away from so many women! 🥰 thank you!
