Our RAW & *emotional* Home Water Birth | No midwife, family assisted birth - Video

Birthing our third daughter in our home. Her guess date was Christmas Day, 12/25/24 and that very night my mucus plug fully came out. By 12/26 we were in early labor union it stalled in the afternoon. By the night fall we knew she would arrive earthside by 12/27/24 just before the new year.

This video is the vlog from 12/25 to the delivery on 12/27 we had utmost Faith that I could birth this baby without the assistance of a midwife or doctor present. Everyone in the room is related to my husband or I. All family, all love.

So many things wrong but SO many things right. I went into this birth controlling what I could and prepared for and everything else I would have to surrender to my God, and my team to help me through to the end.

Truly the birth of my Dreams! ????????????????
