MOMPowered

Kristyn Gentile

Each woman deserves an outlet to tell their story, their journey to becoming a mom, because it is theirs... unique, sometimes trauma and hardship filled, but that sweet baby makes it always worth it. MOMPowered can help show other women that they’re not alone and, while no journey is perfect, it’s beautiful. As you listen to each woman speak, my wish is that it empowers more of you to listen to your gut in pregnancy, make choices for yourself in your labor & delivery, look for support in postpartum, and always advocate for yourself & baby throughout the entire journey.

    MOMPowered Episode 1: My Birth Story

    For moms, by moms.  I wanted to start by opening my heart, and sharing my own birth story with everyone. I figured if I'm asking women to tell their story, I had to start with my own. Listen in to find out why I never got into the birthing tub, and how I coped with having a baby during a pandemic. The books I read to help prepare myself for an unmedicated labor and delivery: Ina May's Guide to Childbirth by Ina May Gaskin The Mama Natural Week by Week Guide to Pregnancy and Childbirth by Genevieve Howland Nurture: A Modern Guide to Pregnancy, Birth, Early Motherhood - and Trusting Yourself and Your Body by Erica Chidi Cohen Birth Without Fear: The Judgement Free Guide to Taking Charge of Your Pregnancy, Birth & Postpartum by January Harshe Hypnobirthing: The Mongan Method by Marie F. Mongan My favorite pregnancy affirmation cards - Mama Natural Pregnancy Affirmation Cards If after listening, you want to learn more about my story, or have questions - reach out to me on Instagram @kgentile_fitmama or send me an email to kgentilefit@gmail.com. Every Monday, I'll feature a mama's story focusing on her pregnancy, birth, and/or postpartum. My wish is that it empowers more of you to listen to your gut in pregnancy, make choices for yourself in labor & delivery, look for support in postpartum, and always advocate for yourself and baby throughout the entire journey.  At the end of each episode, you will know you are not alone, and you may find more connections that help you relate to another woman's story than you even realized.
