I think my water just broke.

I felt like things really intensify.

She was right there and she was coming.

It was an amazing feeling.

I'm going to cry just thinking about it.

I could feel her head.

We heard her cry.

We were squeezing hands and she was screaming. I'm Bryn Hunt Palmer and you're listening to

the birth hour. This podcast is designed as a safe place to come together and share childbirth

stories. Stick around and join us to hear informative and empowering birth journeys from all

over the world.

Today's episode is sponsored by Better Help.

Our mental health affects how we experience life, maybe more than anything else,

which is why it's so important to invest time and care into your mental well-being.

I never felt like I really needed therapy before becoming a mom, but it has had such a huge impact on my mental health as a parent. And this comes up all the time in our Zoom

calls with our community, so I know I'm not alone in this. BetterHelp is online therapy that offers

video, phone, and even live chat-only therapy sessions. So you don't even have to see anyone on camera

if you don't want to.

I love that BetterHelp is so much more affordable and convenient than in-person therapy.

For many people, the barrier to getting therapy is finding a therapist,

especially for everyone out there who is pregnant or has a new baby at home.

With BetterHelp, you can be matched with a therapist in under 48 hours.
