Unmedicated Water Birth at Nearly 42 Weeks | My Birth Center Experience

I gave birth to my second child at 41 weeks and 6 days at a birth center. This unmedicated water birth was one of the most peaceful and powerful experiences of my life. In this video, I share my full birth story and a reminder of God's faithfulness and perfect timing. I’m taking you through everything—from what it was like going past my due date (including an emotional meltdown in Costco), to the moment we were almost transferred to the hospital. And yes... I even share about that castor oil moment no one talks about 🙈 If you’re considering an unmedicated birth, curious about water birth, or just looking for some encouragement as you prepare for your own labor, you're in good company. I hope this story reminds you that you CAN do this and to trust God through the process. --- *Chapters:* 00:00 Can I Really Do an Unmedicated Birth? 00:32 The Wait That Tested Me 03:48 My Breaking Point 05:18 This Sent Me Into Labor 06:43 Will We Make It in Time? 07:39 Things Get Intense 09:41 This Was So Embarrassing: Castor Oil + Labor 10:59 Water Birth 15:12 After Birth & Heading Home 18:32 How YOU Can Do This Too --- 🎥 *Watch next:* How I prepared for an unmedicated birth (link coming soon)
