Leaving the System as a Medical Midwife to Experience the Ecstasy of Freebirthing Twins with Bibi
Watch this episode HERE
Bibi became a licensed medical midwife at 19 years old. She had never heard of freebirth, but when she became pregnant with her first child it was an obvious no that she’d expose herself and her baby to ...well, where she worked. This is an important episode, enjoy.
Here’s what you’ll hear:
-How Bibi freebirthed her first baby super fast with no pain or pushing, and the realization that babies could be born peacefully without crying, just looking at you.
-How she hired (& fired) her private midwife during her first pregnancy after a scan came back with fibroids and she was told she can’t birth at home because she’d surely die
-The negativity she experience after sharing with her 300,000 followers on TikTok that she planned to freebirth her twins.
-The brief sense of fear that she could be having a third baby when she was birthing her twin placentas (it was that huge).
-How after the birth of her twins she felt she was reborn as a mother, as a woman, as and as a midwife. -How birthing her children outside the system radically transformed her midwifery
