Birth As We Know It ™️-Birth Stories and Experiences
If you are planning to become pregnant, trying to conceive, are currently pregnant, or have birthed a baby in the last few years, OR you are working in the birth field, Birth As We Know It ™️ is the podcast for you.
Birth As We Know It ™️ is a birth story and birth experience podcast that is dedicated to recognizing the many different ways that birth unfolds. The good, the bad, and everything else in between.
You will hear birth stories and birth experiences from the perspective of birthing people, birth partners, birth providers, birth workers, and more! This podcast was created to be a place where people can learn more about pregnancy, birth, and a little bit of postpartum, all while hearing about what really happens in the birth space.
Every other week, join Kiona Nessenbaum as she interviews guests who encourage birth education by sharing their personal birth stories and birth experiences. She believes that hearing a birth story directly from the person who lived it, brings the individual human experience back to the forefront of childbirth education.
Kiona is a wife, a mother of 3, a birth doula, a birth assistant, and a former student midwife who has supported over 140 birthing families.
Find a connection through this podcast in knowing that you are not the only one who has experienced something unexpected on your journey to parenthood. As people share their personal birth stories and birth experiences, you will hear about their entire journey through conception, pregnancy, labor, and birth as well as touching on newborn feeding choices and overall postpartum experiences. You will also hear what providers and birth workers think and feel as they support birthing families on their journies to parenthood.
