The Women Who Are Choosing Homebirth During COVID-19

Women in the midst of a world in panic are choosing homebirth.

What we are experiencing right now in the world is unlike anything we have ever seen in our life time! And it is Freakin Scary! And yet here we have pregnant Mothers going beyond the fear, back home preparing for their homebirth.

My inbox has been flooded every day with stories from women whose plans have pivoted from hospital to homebirth, and then there are the women who already knew that this is what they wanted but something was holding them back until now! I have to honestly say that I have never been more PROUD of women before now!

Here are the things that these women all have in common that make them awesome in life and will also give them an amazing birth…

An Unstoppable Mindset

We have two options here, FEAR or LOVE!

Fear says the world is in crisis look around you things are out of control! Go home, be scared, spread fear!

Love says Yep, you’re right this is totally out of your control. Go home, be safe. Things are happening, plans are changing, the world is shifting. My Darling bring your attention inward. Don’t give your energy to things you can’t control. 

Go within, listen to that inner knowing, go home, be safe, be still and listen. Do you hear your baby asking for a gentle, peaceful entrance Earth-side?

That my Dear is your task. Let the rest of the world do their jobs and you do yours. Release that desire to control and just believe that this is happening for a reason. Isn’t it such a gift you are being given, this beautiful opening to invite your baby here with calm loving awareness, in the comfort and safety of home.

The Ability To Pivot

There are some people who are so fixed on the idea that things should be a certain way and then when change comes they just stand there yelling at a closed door.

Nope, not these women they look at a changing situation and adapt and adjust and pivot toward the opening! During birth this is the number one key to making it awesome! When a pressure wave comes on strong or the position they are in isn’t working for them they don’t give up or get mad they simply take a breath and adjust. Being able to take what comes and find the opening is when it all starts working for you!

Homebirth Mothers Believe That Things Are Happening For Them Not To Them

I said it before and it’s true! I am so PROUD of these women who in the craziest of times are still able to tune in to their own voice, strength and wisdom! They are giving their baby such a exquisitely loving entrance into the world that they won’t even have a clue as to the fear and jumble that is happening outside because they are safe at home.
