Welcome to the Free Birth Podcast, a supportive space for people who are learning,

exploring and celebrating their autonomous choices in childbirth.

Together, we'll unpack truths, share personal stories,

and claim our ability to birth freely and intuitively. Here's your host, Emily Sal day.

Hi everyone. Today we have a special show. I have my beloved husband partner

baby daddy favorite person with me to do an episode on my pregnancy experience and

how he has also experienced my pregnancy.

So we have Johnny Jackson Saltea with us.

Welcome, my love.

Hello, so very excited.

And this is going to be interesting,

because it's the first time I've done this with someone sitting next to me

So we're sharing a mic very close our mouths are very close to each other

So we'll see what happens nothing new. We did just eat some guacamole. Okay so we or I have been wanting to do an

episode this whole pregnancy about my experience and the story of our conscious conception and kind of what brought us to

Maui as we are here now in my birthing time and you know a lot of people have asked and thought it would be fun to review everything but I have been procrastinating it like crazy so now that I'm almost 40 weeks I figured if I had Johnny on it would help make it happen so here we are.

Motivator. Yeah. Our story of conscious conception you know where does it really

begin because it certainly begins prior to the fertile week that created this baby.

So we were thinking that maybe we would just kind of do a review of what brought us into the

quote-unquote conscious conception time.

Yeah, I mean our journey started quite a bit before that fertile week,

mostly as an idea.
