In today’s episode of Nitty Gritty to Balance, we’re diving into a deeply personal and raw story: Abegail’s birth story, shared through the lens of both mother and daughter. This wasn’t just any conversation; it was a full-circle moment of reflection, intuition, and deep trust in the body. We (Staci and Abegail) open up about the real-life twists that came with pregnancy, from unexpected timing to the intense decision-making around home, birth, and health, all while keeping balance at the centre.This episode is a heartfelt walk through the beauty of instinct-led choices, herbal support during pregnancy, and the magic of an unmedicated birth at a birthing centre. We explore the physical, emotional, and spiritual elements of birth, from navigating early contractions and intuitive fears of a preterm delivery, to meditations, midwife care, and the surreal moment of meeting baby Peri. It’s vulnerable, empowering, and a celebration of listening inward, even when the world has other plans.We also talk about the quiet strength that comes from preparation: mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. From herbal remedies and hypnobirthing techniques to the unwavering support of a partner and the guidance of midwives, this episode shows how trusting your body and intuition can lead to a birth experience that’s not just powerful but deeply connected. Whether you're a first-time mom, a birthing pro, or just curious about what it really looks like to surrender to your body’s wisdom, this conversation holds space for it all; the fears, the faith, and the transformation.Thank you for being here.
