This week, I’m sharing my full *positive* birth story for baby number 2…our daughter Colette (aka baby Coco). In part 1, I take you through the final weeks of pregnancy, my efforts to naturally induce labor, and the emotional rollercoaster leading up to her arrival. From the pelvic pain that had me convinced she’d be here early, to the decision to go to the hospital on the night she was born, this episode covers it all - including a few unexpected twists and turns along the way.

Stay tuned for part 2 tomorrow where I’ll dive into the entire labor & delivery experience starting at when we arrived at the hospital!
