Your video is the 1st story I had heard of a homebirth. It's one you posted a really long time ago, I am not sure if you still have that up. But it really inspired me which led to my pregnancy vlogs & journey to home birth (my video is on my channel). I never had the chance to tell you & I wanted you to know that your story really changed the course of my life in many ways. THANK YOU!

@cookiepartyy I can't wait to check out your vids now! It makes me feel really good that sharing my experience has influenced someone else in a positive way, I was hoping for that and now feel totally encouraged to continue sharing, so Thank YOU!

My sis n law recently had a home birth assisted by a midwife. Her midwife told her to start taking alfalfa supplements and as a result she said that she bled very little with her delivery. This is her second child. She even said that she had stopped bleeding completely after about a week and a half. I have not researched this yet (as I plan to because I too am pregnant :) ) but I just wanted to give you that info as it may be helpful in your next delivery.

@Kingkids26 Thanks for sharing, I will definitely be looking into the alfafa supplements!

What an incredibly, courageous woman you are. I was watching this video in awe and complete delight. Thanks for sharing your wonderful birthing experience. What did the placenta taste like? Btw- Congratulations on the new baby!

@LifeInTheSunshine Thank you! It tasted like saline solution, it wasn't bad tasting at all.
