Episode 268 has a special place in my heart. I listened to these podcasts as I was preparing to give birth to my first. My dream was to give birth at home. And I was able to labor at home for many hours which was beautiful. There was pressure but no pain. Then we found out that my baby had...Read full review »

The best birth podcast. Hands down. Because the host is such a good listener and leaves her ego aside. Just wonderful birth stories. Thank you.

Seriously my favorite birth podcast!! Love the format how they share their whole story in chronological order so there’s not a ton of jumping around. The pain free birth podcast I love too but honestly like this format better. It really helped me understand the process of pregnancy and birth! Ep....Read full review »

This podcast gave me the confidence to do my own home birth with my second. It allowed me to learn to trust my body and just offered a lot of education about birth through the experience of mothers. My home birth was beautiful and I attribute this podcast to putting me in the best mindset for...Read full review »

I just started listening to this one (been listening to the VBAC Link Podcast obsessively). My third baby was a VBA2C, and I’m going to have another. The host is so good, particularly because she does not interrupt or say meaningless phrases like, “I love that!” She also gives her brief wisdom at...Read full review »

As a husband, this podcast has really helped me engage with my wife’s pregnancy. It can be really easy to check out and forget that she’s pregnant but when I listen to these episodes, it reminds me of what’s coming in the next months. Seriously, thank you!

This podcast was one of my favorite tools when preparing for the birth of my first child. I love a good birth story, and this show delivers! Pun intended :)
Ycarrasco via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/02/24
The Happy Homebirth podcast quickly became my favorite podcast to listen to, and I listen to quite a few! Katelyn has captured an audience and played an integral roll in the (back to) Homebirth movement. I really appreciate that she gives the people she interviews autonomy to share their true...Read full review »

It’s unlikely you’ll see this, but your review was extremely vague, and it’s probable that anyone reading it will believe that I, the host, made the statement you’ve quoted, which could not be further from the truth. If you’ve listened to several episodes, I would imagine you know my heart to...Read full review »

I started listening to this podcast when I was about halfway through my first pregnancy (and only so far) and after listening to ONE episode I reached out to Katelyn to talk about joining her very first Homebirth Collective. Finding this podcast changed the entire trajectory of my...Read full review »

Thank you Happy Homebirth! I just gave birth a few weeks ago and my journey from the very beginning of this pregnancy has brought about a lot of uncertainty and suffering in a lot of ways. I never in a million years thought I would be able to have a homebirth because of my tendencies towards fear...Read full review »

“Roe v Wade got overturned and I was raging. I didn’t have rights as a pregnant woman” yeah, you don’t have the right to kill another person. Really liked the podcast until that. Not applicable to home north at all and in all honesty will turn off the majority of your audience. Something to be...Read full review »

I was so encouraged listening to all the moms share their stories while I was preparing for the birth of my son. It drew me closer to the Lord and filled me with HOPE in a truly challenging season. Thank you so so SO much.

After my dad’s sudden death this year, I didn’t know how to bring my attention to my pregnancy and upcoming birth. I read HypnoBirthing again, but, unlike my first pregnancy, it didn’t sharpen my vision or clarify my birthing goals. Listening to this podcast has given me specific ways to manage...Read full review »

As a seasoned midwife, I find this podcast so helpful for me to recommend to clients that are looking into homebirth and want to know even more! Katelyn shares such amazing stories and has the most incredible guests, I love that she has created a community to further discuss homebirths!
Midwife_Melissa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/13/23
Thank you Katelyn for foraging truth about the safety, superiority and reality of giving birth at home. Listening to the stories of other women gave me the encouragement and insight on how to prepare for having an amazing birth at home after a not so great hospital birth. I learned about the art...Read full review »

I had a still birth in 2021 and the experience I had was so bad at the hospital. I was seeking Homebirth but out baby girl had a genetic abnormality so I was ruled out of my midwife’s care as high risk. It was a horrifying experience but God has been so faithful to heal those wounds. I found out...Read full review »

The Happy Homebirth podcast provided the perfect stories for me to dive into to help prepare me for my own homebirth. I learned so much, and became so empowered, encouraged, and educated. This podcast was one of several core resources that set me up for my own dream homebirth. I love how open and...Read full review »

I am a first time mom just five weeks away from my estimated due date. I started listening to this podcast about a week after I found out I was pregnant and it has been a game changer. Listening to the stories of all these mamas has definitely empowered me in a time where I felt I stood alone in...Read full review »

I started listening to this podcast at the beginning of my pregnancy when I had decided to commit to a homebirth, I was still a little apprehensive about having a homebirth and that’s why I’m so so happy I found the happy homebirth podcast.

I grew up in a family where hospital births are absolutely the norm.

I heard about the podcast from Farmhouse on Boone YouTube channel so I started listening. And I love this show!

I have listened to almost all these episodes! I only have 25 left to go. I absolutely love Katelyn and her faith in the Lord and her belief that physiological birth works! Thank you so much for sharing these birth stories. I look forward to each episode! ❤️❤️❤️
jen__v via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/20/23
The way Katelyn hosts this podcast is incredibly empowering and so encouraging! The narrative around birth being a fearful experience needs to be questioned and this podcast will make a difference for so many mamas. Can’t wait to have another homebirth as I listen to these stories.
leishabrooke via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/17/23
This podcast has been getting me THROUGH! I’m a first time mama 22 weeks along with our precious little girl. We decided a home birth was our best option for delivery even before we conceived but as soon as it was real the doubts and insecurities came up. My wonderful midwife and THIS PODCAST has...Read full review »

I adore this pod. I’ve learned so much about birth, women, and myself. I’ve finally been able to accept the trauma I’ve had in all my births and postpartum times. Waiting for my 4th child and I hope that from the new knowledge I have I can be a better advocate for myself. I don’t just have to go...Read full review »

I highly recommend this podcast for anyone preparing to have a Homebirth. I started listening early in my pregnancy and not only did every episode reaffirm my decision to have a Homebirth, the episodes provided great insight to the many different unique ways labor and birth can progress. I felt...Read full review »

As a 20 year old, first time home birthing mom, I’m also the first one in generations to have a Homebirth in my family.

I LOVE this podcast so much! I binged all the episodes while pregnant and preparing for my first birth at home.

I am currently 17 weeks pregnant with my 4th baby and planning my first homebirth.

I started listening to this podcast following my friend telling me she was having a homebirth.

Listening...Read full review »
