From Belly To Baby Birthing

06/17/2026

A beautiful little girl, weighing in at 8 #3, joined us Earthside early Sunday morning. Her mama worked long and hard to get her here… and she was born en caul. This only happens 1 in every 80,000 births and of course it’s because we brought a new student along and the universe needed her to see something rare!
Congrats to C and J on your newest little one, she is so loved!!

That’s a 39% increase over eight years. HMMMMMMMMM.....what came out 8 years ago you ask???? The ARRIVE trial. The ARRIVE trial that told providers that it was fine and dandy to induce all the mamas. IT IS NOT.

The CDC’s NCHS Data Brief No. 554 (2026) analyzed all singleton births from 2016–2024 and found:

Induction rate in 2016: 24.9%

Induction rate in 2024: 34.5%

That’s a 39% increase over eight years.

This is the official national statistic used by researchers, clinicians, and policymakers.

Step one: Hire a Midwife.
Step two: Hire a doula.
Step three: Figure out your birth plan :)

🔔🔔🔔Circumcision didn't become
widespread in North America because of clear, lifesaving medical necessity. It's another bogus science hoax pushed by the corrupt medical system. ‼️
In the late 1800s, it was heavily promoted in the U.S. during a time when doctors were trying to "prevent" diseases and even behaviors like ma********on - claims that have since been discredited. That's documented medical history, not opinion.
Fast forward to today: major health organizations do not recommend routine circumcision for all infants. The Canadian Paediatric Society states that the potential benefits don't outweigh the risks enough to justify it universally.
And yes - there are risks:
👉🏻bleeding and infection
👉🏻surgical complications need for revision procedures
👉🏻removal of functional, sensitive tissue - EVEN DEATH, necrosis, amputation.

🚨This isn't a required health intervention for the vast majority of boys - it's a non-essential, irreversible procedure.
🚨It's also important to be clear: this is not a requirement of the Old Testament covenant for Christians today, and informed faith communities do not practice it at all.

Parents deserve full, honest information - not outdated narratives.

The human body was designed by God with intention.
Not everything needs to be "fixed."

Do your research before you invest!

Questions to ask your OB or Midwife to know if you’re seeing the right one!

1. How many cesareans have they done in the last week and or month?
2. Will they let me delay vaccines if I want to or not get them if I don’t want to?
3. Will they try to talk me into circumcision if I prefer not to do it?
4. What interventions do they use and how often?
5. Can I have free movement?
6. Can I eat and drink to keep my energy up?

Know what questions to ask and be well informed! Know advantages and disadvantages to hospital and birthing center births! Know what kind of birth you want and get that kind of birth!

“Don’t let your birth experience be stolen because you were afraid.”
Dr Fred Cummings

This is very important you and your baby deserve to have a beautiful experience not a scary and traumatic one! This is the picture you want when you meet your baby the first time!
