Some excerpts…
—from Jordyn’s Story, “Your Body is Designed to Do This”
“If I were to offer advice to an expectant mother, I’d tell her to develop the mindset that your body is designed to do this, to give birth. And I’d say that birthing is way more of a mental than a physical challenge.”

—from Sarah’s story, “Here I Go Again”
“After the birth, someone put a rose in the water and lit candles. It was like being in love all over again.”

—from Mesa’s Story, “Opting for a C-section”
“Every kind of emotion possible in human experience was going on in this little newborn’s face. I was astounded. I remember thinking in all seriousness, why don’t we just have a television channel where we could put a camera on the faces of newborns so that we could watch them all day!”

—from Jennifer’s Story, “If the Big Stuff Turns Out Fine, the Rest is Just Details”
“So much of pregnancy and birth involves being out of control. It’s easy to get worked up about things. Your mindset is important. You have to trust the people working with you and make peace with the things you can’t control.”
