Community Birth Story: Don’t Ever Let Me Forget How Strong I Am with J Stewart

J came back to postnatal yoga and shared that she faced two monumentous  moments of struggle and surrender during her birth. Having had the chance to get to know J through out her pregnancy, I was deeply curious about her birth story. J, was a regular in prenatal yoga and the topic of fear and control was often something she often expressed. How do you enter a situation that is out of your control when you have a deep desire to control the process? 

In our conversation, J vulnerably shared about the anxiety and depression she faced during pregnancy, the obstacles of her birth, and how she had to surrender control to allow her labor to progress.  After a long birth, she was able to look back at the experience with pride and deep admiration for her personal journey. She told her husband, “Don’t ever let me forget how strong I am.”
