• My Final Birth Story

    Jessica shares the story of her third son’s birth at home.  I wanted to write about the birth of Mattis, our third baby boy, but I quickly realized in order to get to the point of my husband and me deciding to have a home birth, it would take a little back ground info; well, actually, a lot. This maybe…

  • Veda’s Birth Story

    Liz shares the story of her third child’s birth at home.  Birth. There is so much packed into those five letters.

    We thank Rachel for returning to the BWF blog and sharing her third birth story with us. Her first birth story is here, and her second is here.

  • Lane’s Birth Story

    Abbie tells us about the birth of her son, Lane. I figured I needed to write this all down before I forget the good detailed bits about Lane’s birth. There was so much beauty in it.

    Kyla shares with us the moving story of her daughter’s birth. My due date came and went. For eight days I experienced periods of contractions, which varied in length and intensity.

  • A Positive Emergency Induction Story

    Natalie shares the story of her son’s induced birth. I’d been researching about babies and birth for as long as I can remember; so when my husband, Greg, and I found out we were pregnant, I was so excited to put what I had learned into practice. I hated reading stories about all the awful things that went along with pregnancy and I…

  • My VBAC Story

    Sherry-Ann shares her beautiful VBAC birth story. I always knew that I wanted to birth my kids the way nature intended – naturally.
