#99 | When God Rewrites Your Birth Plan: A Miraculous Breech Hospital Birth

What would you do if your dream birth plan completely fell apart… and still turned out better than you ever imagined?

In this powerful episode of the Pain-Free Birth Podcast, Karen sits down with Brie Kuikahi, who shares her incredible first birth story-a breech hospital birth during COVID that she describes as “better than I imagined” and “absolutely perfect.”

After planning for a natural birth center experience, Brie’s baby remained breech, and due to state laws, no midwives were able to support her. What followed was a journey filled with fear, surrender, and ultimately, divine alignment.

Despite every obstacle, Brie had the birth she prayed for: minimal intervention, deep connection with her husband, and a delivery that “went perfectly.”

This episode will encourage any mama navigating uncertainty, unexpected changes, or fear around birth.

Tune in to hear:

•  What happens when your baby stays breech—and your options feel limited 
•  The emotional reality of being denied support for your birth preferences 
•  How Brie navigated fear, disappointment, and uncertainty during pregnancy 
•  The moment everything shifted—and she found the only supportive provider 
•  What it’s like to have a vaginal breech birth in a hospital setting 
•  How mindset, faith, and surrender transformed her birth experience 
•  Why “losing control” can actually lead to your most powerful birth 
•  The role of a supportive partner during labor (and what helped most) 
•  How her birth ended up being better than she ever imagined
