  • Grateful beyond measure for this podcast

    I started listening to Anna’s podcast in January 2023 when I was 21 weeks pregnant with my first. I hadn’t yet touched the surface of true physiological birth and was simply looking for “natural birth” stories, which in my mind was just giving birth to a baby in the normal way, not by c-section, and natural birth could include epidurals and pitocin. With that mindset, I was a little put off by the first few stories I listened to, but I kept listening because Anna provides a gentle, kind and trus... more

  • So helpful!

    For me, this podcast was so helpful while I was pregnant with my first baby. I knew that I wanted a natural birth and although I wanted a home, I felt that the natural birth was the most important thing for me and that I should also listen to stories of women who birthed in hospitals. I really enjoy how the guests are from all over the world because I feel it gives an accurate understanding of the medical system. I very much recommend this podcast to anyone who is pregnant, regardless of what th... more

  • Frustratingly negative podcast

    I am planning to have a natural birth in the hospital and sought out a podcast to try and prepare for that. Listening to the episode about natural birth in the hospital was frustrating. This woman is extremely negative towards hospital births and will leave you feeling like you basically have no chance of succeeding with a natural hospital births. I’m disappointed in her negativity towards a situation that to her is not “perfect”. Maybe it’s perfect for someone else though.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Synchronisities that lead to an Empowering Home Birth
Q: If you had a first time mama in front of you right now, he's about to have her first baby, and she really wants to have a natural and empowering birth experience. What advice and pros of wisdom would you give to her?
Erika recommends trusting the body, asking questions, seeking support, and writing down and acknowledging fears instead of pretending not to be scared.
The Synchronisities that lead to an Empowering Home Birth
Q: Did you know before you got pregnant or when you got pregnant, did you know already then that home birth was the right thing for you?
No. Two podcast episodes about birth unexpectedly prompted her to consider home birth, and after becoming pregnant she felt it was the right choice despite initial uncertainty.
The Spiritual Conscious Conception Journey & Home Births of Dr. Gertrude Lyon
Q: If you had a first time mama in front of you right now, who's about to have her first baby, and she really wants to have a natural and empowering birth experience, what advice and wisdom would you give to her?
Gertrude recommends trusting intuitive feelings and then seeking evidence, and creating a vision based on values and the kind of experience desired rather than rigidly adhering to a birth plan.
The Spiritual Conscious Conception Journey & Home Births of Dr. Gertrude Lyon
Q: Was it always obvious for you that you wanted to have a home birth?
No. Gertrude grew up trusting Western medicine, but became open to home birth after hearing a colleague describe his family's experience. She later chose home birth because it fit her values and offered greater autonomy.
Pain is the portal
Q: So if you had a first time mom in front of you right now, he's about to have her first baby, and she really wants to have a natural and empowering birth experience. What advice and pearls of wisdoms would you give to her?
Fincha recommends trusting intuition about birth decisions and the people providing support, letting others help, investing in the support needed when possible, and asking loved ones for meals, cleaning and other practical assistance.
