399: 3 Precipitous Home Births with Brandi Jack

Do you have faith in your body to give birth?
Today’s episode dives into this topic. Brandi Jack joins us and shares details of her 4 birth stories, each powerful and unique.
From her first birth in a hospital to 3 home births, Brandi gives us an authentic and heart-centered storytelling.
Also note that we talk about the experiences of multiple miscarriages and an unhealthy marriage dynamic in Brandi’s previous relationship that impacted parts of the pregnancy and birth experiences.
From Brandi:
“I thought I was doing everything right before my first baby. I had the recommended OB, I did the hospital birth classes, I read the WTE book and I thought I knew everything I needed to know. But just like the first pancake in a batch, my first labor and delivery didn't turn out at all how I hoped. An unnecessary induction, no real understanding of what to expect and an episiotomy I didn't consent to quickly led to an experience that was nothing like I had imagined.”
