Hosanna's Birth Story: Freebirth With Jesus

Hosanna's Birth Story: Freebirth With Jesus

In this episode I share about conception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with my third living baby, Hosanna. I was led by God to have a birth without a provider present, fully trusting in Jesus to be with me and guide me if I should seek out any additional support, which we did in some ways, including having a precious midwife come after the birth to assess baby and I, and help my husband clean up. This is the story from start to finish!! It's already 9 months + since her birth and I am still in awe of how beautiful it was. I pray it blesses and encourages you to follow Jesus in every area - even if it seems crazy to the world. He is faithful!
