Breathing through third stage
Birth story part 1/8~ I complete this amazing life creating chapter of my life with the most sacred & calm transition into mother of three! I wrote my birth story two days after my birth. My son is now 1 month old and I am ready to reconnect and share after this sacred quiet time. My first two births were beautiful natural deliveries in water, I got to catch and bring both of them to my chest. This birth was going to have me experience something totally different! My strong swimming & prenatal yoga practice also guided me well for a positive labour & postpartum period šš½

Riding the waves

Supportive Rebozo Anchor
I moved my body specifically and intentionally to allow my baby into optimal position and into the inlet of my pelvis. I was drinking lots of coconut water as I had a very bad leg cramp during the crowning stage of my previous birth. That was definitely NOT going to happen again š! I had two toilet breaks in this time.

Birth story part 6/8~ It was one hour from when Scotty woke to when our baby was born.
My beautiful friend Gabe @gabrielle_eileen_ arrived & started tending to me bringing towels & taking pictures. My Mum & Father in law also arrived. All missing the birth.

Racing to get birth pool ready
My home birth is a memory I will cherish forever. All my births have been special in their own unique ways. But there was something extra special about this 3rd ride- birthing in the home were I grew up, my own space- drinking tea watching the sun rise over the hills surrounded by loved ones, all my support & my beautiful baby Koa on my breast. Just BliSs- Oxytocin plus plus! ā„ļøšš½ #grateful
