In a world with beautiful photos and Instagram posts, social media can often romanticize pregnancy and birth and create high expectations for what your experience will or *should* be like.

And while birth is a beautiful and miraculous thing, it can also be intense, uncertain, and scary – despite even our best efforts to prepare, educate, and advocate.

Whether your birth went exactly as you dreamed it would, or your birth plans were thrown out the window, every birth is a miracle and your birth story holds its own unique beauty.

In this episode of the SHE podcast, I share my story of giving birth to my son, Shepherd, and talk about how I navigated a birth experience that didn’t align with what I had originally imagined, but ultimately brought the best blessing.

After walking through multiple pregnancy losses, and through the fear of this pregnancy being yet another loss, God was faithful and gave not only a healthy baby but TWO babies. 🌈🌈
