Girl hats 🎩 off to you! I read the title no medication and clicked. My boys are 21 and 26 my back hasn’t been right since that first epidural I had one with both. I think a home birth is beautiful. In our grandparents days it was common. Wishing you a peaceful loving and healthy baby and birthing🥰

My sister has severe back pain from her epidurals 😢 and doctors will refuse to say that the epidural caused it even though it is obvious.

Just a random suggestions for the birth pool: thrift store or old quilt sandwiched between your shower curtain/cheap sheets to insulate!! My hubby was too excited when he was setting ours up and put it straight on cold tile and it totally cooled the tub wayyyyy faster than the norm! Our guy was born in may and I can’t speak enough about how incredible of an experience home birth was!!!

Great tip!!

So excited for your home birth! I am now preparing for our second homebirth with our third little munchkin. I do recommend for under the tub to maybe use a thick poly (the stuff used for painting) and have it stretch out to your bed for when you need to get out and deliver the placenta to avoid a trailing mess. And then be sure to tape the poly down so no one can trip on it. This was what our midwife had us do and it made everything way easier and protected our wood floors. Also, my 2nd birth gave me HORRIBLE after cramps and the tincture was not enough for me so my midwife let me take Ibiphrofen. It was the only thing that helped me through that pain because it lasted for several days. So maybe have that on hand (just in case).

Oh this is such a good call about putting something down between the tub bed, I didn't even think of that!! And good call on the ibuprohen - thank you!!

Hitting 36 weeks myself & this will be my second free-standing birth center birth :) super excited for you and your home birth!!! Praying for a safe and blessed home birth for sweet Becca and your sweet baby girl! Love your vids 💕

So great that you're planning a homebirth. I'm 37 weeks with #2, and had my first (and planning this one!) at home. It's such an amazing experience :)

Thank you so much for continuing to put out videos weekly or every couple weeks I really really enjoy your long videos on anything you upload!

I’m so excited for you! I just had my second I medicated birth- I did birthing center first too and my first is also 2 years old! Home birth this time and it went amazing. We also used In His Hands and let me tell you- that after ease is fantastic! I didn’t have hardly any after pains with nursing my first, but WOW this time it was just as intense as labor contractions! I was so not expecting that 😅 but the after ease helped so much!

Ahhh so excited for you. You are going to rock this home birth. Looks like you are very prepared but the one piece of advice I would give is to tell your team if there’s anything you envision at the birth. Could be certain lights being turned down, a playlist on, some time alone in a different room, etc. it’s hard to voice those needs sometimes in the think of it. Have funnnn!

Let me just echo the necessity of the ‘after ease’ tincture. That stuff is a miracle worker. After having my second baby the uterine cramping was awful for the first week but every time I would feel the pain start I would put this in my water and chug and it was like instant relief.

Tara should definitely talk to you about hospital and the experience. She hasn’t had good ones. I know she was saying she was thinking of a homebirth but now not! You’re a wealth of knowledge when it comes to how the hospital environment factors into how you labor. Wish she would watch some of your videos ❤️

For towels that you might just end up throwing out, you can ask hotels. They’ll give you old towels

Yeah that can be tough!! Def has to be something you are both comfortable with. I really love the "Doing It At Home" podcast - they have amazing episodes and even one about talking toy our partner who isn't on board. It's hosted by a husband and wife so you get to hear both perspectives! xx

I believe the gold capsules are for baby’s belly button / to dry the umbilical cord and the white with green line was like an underwear to wear with a pad. Thanks for the video! Currently 35 weeks pregnant and having our third home birth so wanted some reminders 😇

I've heard essential oils are volatile & can mess with our microbiome
