My Birthing Stories: Pain, Pitocin, & Su...

Dear Media
About this episode

From false labor scares and not finding Cam’s heartbeat to sleep training, breastmilk stashes, and granny panties... I’m taking you back to the raw, chaotic, beautiful early days of motherhood. I share what I had no clue about with my first newborn, the help I had with each baby, why I chose to be induced just so I wouldn’t give birth alone, and what I would do differently if I had a baby today. From eczema and night nurses to co-sleeping and Jaxon crawling into my bed every night for four years, we talk about the exhaustion, the guilt, the joy, and the judgment (including mom shaming). I open up about losing my brother the same week I had Saylor, pushing myself way too hard, and all of the things that made those days feel long, even when the months flew by. This episode is real, honest, and a reminder to listen to your gut ALWAYS.
