This is what it looks like to have a life-threatening pregnancy in a state with an ban.

Mayron was not even 10 weeks pregnant when her OB-GYN knew something was wrong.

She had an ectopic implanted in scar tissue from a previous section.

Interesting discussions between ourselves, our children and their friends who are all having or considering children. Apparently it’s a thing now that it’s typical to choose to have a cesarean rather than vaginal childbirth

Did you write out birth stories for your children?

Today is a birthday in our house. As with the other birthdays, I am taking a moment to enjoy a coffee and re-read her birth story. Around age 3, this child decided that her birth unfolded differently:

"First, I didn't want to come out and then I did, so I punched my way out and danced for the doctor." 😂

TW: Birth story includes details of a midwife-attended planned home birth, with transfer to hospital for a surgical birth. The overall experience was incredibly positive and empowering, but might be upsetting for some. Of my 6 live births, this remains my most empowering birth experience, even more than the VBAC that followed two years later. <3
