Birth Kweens

I’m so sad this podcast has ended, but I’ve been listening to what is available and I’ve learned so much.

I’ve been listening to this podcast while pregnant and learned SO much. And still have a bunch more episodes in my queue to listen to. They offer very balanced perspectives and cover a huge variety of topics. However, I do agree with other 1-2-star reviews that mention disappointment with co-opting the word “Kweens” for their title and too much giggling and laughing. As someone who previously worked in the birth space, I also find it pretty offensive the way they discuss some topics, such as substance use (“addicts”) and the way Karly talks about “Africa” as if the whole continent is one big stereotype.

I absolutely loved listening to these two women and I have been binge watching for the last few days . And even though a lot of things were shockingly real and scary I really appreciated the honesty . Thank you for the peace of mind and the knowledge I gained walking away from these podcasts . I will say that as a 2 time homebirth mom I had trouble locating the podcast because I was searching homebirth specifically . I came across your podcast because it was posted in a homebirth Facebook group ! So your hidden but a hidden gem for sure. Im going to miss listening to you guys .

Too bad they are no longer making new episodes, but it’s definitely worth binging all the old ones! I’ve been listening to all the Birth podcasts through my pregnancy and this is one of the best ones if you’re interested in natural birth!
