Welcome to Birth Trauma Stories Podcast
 Today's episode I'm joined by Brittany Baker, mama of four work from home Mama, dear friend and the doula who supported me during the birth of my second daughter. What makes this conversation especially sacred and heavy is that Brittany was in the room when we experienced our amniotic fluid embolism. That alone carries layers of shared trauma and deep connection. In this episode, we talk about what it's like to have babies after witnessing an AFE, and how fear, faith and healing coexist; especially when her daughter Libby's birth was semi off-grid. Brittany also shares her own life-threatening story. Two years before having her daughter, Libby, she experienced an aneurysm on the main blood vessel to her spleen. Doctors later told her that if she had become pregnant before it was discovered, it could have cost both of their lives. This is a conversation about survival, God's protection, and the miracles.
