Yes! That is exactly why I share. I wasn’t a woman who wanted a homebirth at all costs, my health and history were so ‘boring’ that I was an ‘ideal’ candidate for homebirth. What I failed to realize is that the provider I trusted had sold out to ‘spiritual midwifery’ and is now fueled more by passion than fact, which is getting increasingly dangerous. I never want a woman to find out the truth the way I had too. That ‘slight chance of risk’ was too high a cost to pay. I would NEVER willingly do it again. The loss of Miranda and the way her care was handled by my midwife taints the birth of my 3 children who are thankfully okay, and 2 of them were born without her even being here.

Thanks for being open to what I am saying and thank you so much for praying for us.

Way to take responsibility for your actions or to follow through with the care of a patient.
You keep telling this story because before I read it… I thought maybe homebirth would be “fun.” Since I have such easy labors and delivery… what a stressfree way to give birth. But I can see now how important the things I find invasive or too much – the audience is there to do their job to help bring that baby into the world safely and healthy. And without the oversight you really have no clue what you are getting.

I’m sorry this happened. I’m praying over you and your family as you continue to speak the truth.
