YOUR BIRTH, GOD’S WAY - Christian Pregnancy, Natural Birth, Postpartum, Breastfeeding Help
** TOP 1% of Podcasts in the World ** Are you a Christian mom who is pregnant and you feel out of control in your prenatal care -- like you have no voice and no say in how things go? Are you yearning to bring God back into your time of birth? Do you feel unsupported and alone in this early motherhood journey? Do you want to find your voice to bring you the kind of care you’ve been dreaming of having? IT IS POSSIBLE to reclaim your pregnancy and postpartum so you can have the peace and joy God intended you to have during this beautiful time of life. This show is going to be an answer to the prayer you’ve had in your heart to find a better way. Hey mama! I’m Lori Morris, a certified nurse-midwife and a mama of three babies born on my terms in the water outside of the hospital, naturally. I’ve got over 20 years of experience in this broken medicalized world of childbirth. I’ve attended hundreds of births as a nurse and later as a certified nurse-midwife in the hospital, in birth centers, and (my own) at home. I know how all sides of maternity care and I am here to help Christian moms navigate this road with joy, calm, and clarity. Inside this podcast, I will teach you: --＞ How to trust God with your pregnancy and birth -- ＞ How to find and use your voice in your pregnancy care --＞ How to prepare for birth and rock it on your terms (homebirth, birth center birth, or hospital birth) -- ＞ How to have a natural birth if that is what you choose --＞ How to thrive during postpartum and breastfeeding I can’t wait to help YOU break free from the grips of a broken medical system that has stripped the beauty and joy from what God made perfect. That doesn’t mean you can’t use the medical system, but we will work together to put it back in its proper place. You are more than a prenatal test result and your baby is more than a grapefruit on a pregnancy app! I give you permission to RELAX and ENJOY this time of life. So if you’re ready to break away from the conventional to discover God’s beautiful plan for this fleeting time of life, go fill up that water bottle or grab some decaf and get ready. I’m about to show you how to reclaim your prenatal period, your childbirth, and your postpartum time as you become a woman and mother truly made in the image of God. YOU CAN DO THIS! He made you for this and I’m going to help you get there.

In our culture, tons of money gets spent on the baby nursery. Moms spend hours loading up their baby registry with stuff they really don’t need and most likely will never use. I mean, who needs 3000 onesies in newborn size? Rather than putting so much effort into decorating the nursery, spend an equal amount of time, money, and effort to plan your postpartum and you will hav...
Twice recently I have had reviews that accused me of being a fear mongerer because I tell the truth about hospital birth. I'm not scared of negative reviews because it means I've hit a nerve -- that's good! Let's talk about it. Galatians 4:16 says, "Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?" Sometimes the truth hurts, and sometimes warnings are needed when real danger awaits. I'm diving into...

Just your annual reminder that "NO, thank you" is a complete sentence when your doctor or midwife start saying things like "Let's pick your induction date" or "If you want to make sure I'm there, we need to induce on ____." If your baby isn't here yet, your baby isn't ready. Wait on God. Your labor will come at the perfect time!

There's a moment in time during active labor between stage one and stage two called "transition". This is a time when really everything about labor changes. It is in this moment that many moms are thrown off of their game and they abandon their plan because they don't understand the flow of labor and they think they can't do it anymore, not realizing they're almost there. I don't want that to happen to you, so this ...
