EP 98 \ Why Home Birth Is Less Costly Than Hospital Birth (No Matter the Price)
07/02/24 • 32 min
Show Notes:
We’ve touched on this before in another episode, but with our focus this past month on home birth, I wanted to spend some time looking more in depth at what comes with the global fee most midwives charge so you can appreciate the immense value that a home birth midwife brings. I also wanted to look at potential long term costs that will far exceed the midwife’s fee.
If you need help figuring out how to afford home birth, or if you need help with any other aspect of home birth, join us for the Home Birth Prep Course LIVE starting July 11th at 7pm Central time where we’ll spend Thursday nights for four weeks diving into these topics in a way that will ensure you are fully prepared for every aspect of your birth at home. This page has all the details so go check it out!

EP 97 \ Free Birth: A Safe Option Or Reckless Game of Russian Roulette? A Look At Unattended Birth
SHOW NOTES:
I've been seeing a lot about free birth on social media and I've had moms ask me what my opinion is about whether it is a safe option or something to be avoided, so I decided it was time to do an episode on it. It is a very interesting topic and it is certainly not new. We look at the reality of unattended birth in this episode and think about whether it might be a good option for you.
If you are planning a freebirth and want to learn more about how to prepare your home, what supplies you need and where to get them, how get your family on board, how to make the transition into postpartum and breastfeeding, and so much more, sign up for my LIVE Home Birth Prep Course starting July 11th!
