The Biggest Regret I have With My Home Birth (It Weirdly Involves Pizza)

So many people told me, “DON’T DO IT!” when they heard I was having a home birth. Ironically, the first thing I said after my home birth was “I DID IT!” I only regret one thing… keep reading to find out what it was.


99% of the time their reasoning for saying “don’t do it” (Home Birth) was rooted in their own fear and one of the following:

😱It’s scary! 😱You need a doctor & medical attention! 😱What about pain meds? 😱A midwife isn’t a doctor! 😱What if you have to go to the hospital?


(I’ve answered most of those questions in my home birth story blog)


In the very beginning, I responded with facts that I had read. I still hadn’t totally unlearned what I thought I knew about birth (based on movies & scary stories from other women) & to be honest I was still a bit fearful.


As my pregnancy progressed, I became unafraid of BIRTH more and more because I put in the work! It wasn’t easy, but I did a lot of learning and worked hard to put my trust in the Lord knowing that my body was fully designed to do this. I spent time learning the facts about birth, what it’s like, what to expect, watching birthing videos, etc. and asking a million questions to my incredible birthing team (midwife & doulas). I’m glad I didn’t let a few people’s negative reactions impact my decision to have a home birth. I would do a home birth again in a heartbeat! Stop letting other people project THEIR fears onto you - don’t let THEIR fears impact what your gut is telling you is right for YOU!


Funny story: Early on, my mom wasn’t 100% on board. She called me from her OBGYN’s office (during her own doc appointment with the doc that delivered me) and asked me if I was REALLY having this baby at home. When I told her YES, she said “My doctor says the only thing that should be delivered at home is a pizza!”


🍕 😉 I should have sent him a pizza after my son was safely born at home. That’s my only regret!

One fact that hiring an online tutor to take my online biology class relates to carrying out very effective communication with the service I hire. Provide any details that you have as far as deadlines, expectations, and specific requirements of the course go. Be in the loop by checking on progress concerning biology assignments or exams done on one's behalf to ensure everything is in line with course expectations.
