“I am having a water birth in a birthing center in Mexico, which is wayyyy different than where I had originally thought I would deliver my first baby. But the more I educate myself on home births/birth centers the more I know this is the way for me. I’m so happy to have found your podcast, and am...”Read full review »

“So, I’ve followed Sarah Bivens awhile now. I’m glad that there is another voice added to the birth world . Different perspectives and opinions do matter in birth, so that you can form your own stance through that. However, this podcast is geared more in the middle. Free birth and wild birth is...”Read full review »
