In this episode, Samantha shares her powerful unmedicated birth story with her third using mindfulness and meditation techniques! Samantha's Birth Story: My third birth experience was SO powerful. Mindfulness and meditation allowed me to have a peaceful, 20-hour unmedicated labor and delivery. A few months after we recorded the podcast, I had my fourth baby, once again an unmedicated birth! This one was different because my labor stalled out, but meditation and mindfulness once again made a huge difference.  You can follow Samantha on social media here: Blog: Evidence-based Mommy Pinterest: pinterest.com/evidencemommy   Resources from the episode:   A recorded a set of meditations to listen to while preparing for birth.
