Katie :: Wildnerness Birth & Big Family Life Holy Wild Birth
-
- Alternative Health
This episode with the beautiful Katherine DeGroot -- a MN mama to 4 young children all born outside the hospital -- covers not only her four birth stories (with a special emphasis on the 4th) but also went down some delightful rabbit trails, which I did NOT edit out because I believe you'll find them very worthwhile to listen to.
Some of what we covered:
How each birth was a different “era” for her relationship and family
Being open to life
The foreshadowing and significant dreams she expereinced leading up to her fourth birth
Why hard isn’t bad — not shirking away from pain
The “cost” of castor oil use
The fourth baby effect
Reclaiming Big family culture for our generation
The way that home birthing puts us on a different health trajectory
Creating - -by design-- the childhood you want your children to have
Reverting to Catholicism
Radical trust in God alone for the work no one else can do for you
The gift of birth is that it strips us down to our humanity
You can find Katie at @katherinelouisedegroot on IG or on her website.
A written version of her 4th birth story is on her blog.
