In this powerful first installment of our conversation with Certified Nurse Midwife Amie Hernandez, we unpack what really happens during emergencies at a home birth — from shoulder dystocia and “big babies” to cord prolapse, small pelvic bones, whether or not a C-section is truly necessary, the wild inaccuracies of sonogram weight estimates and how fear-based decisions are often made around numbers that simply aren’t reliable..
Amie shares how the art of using hands in midwifery is fading in modern obstetrics, and how birth is not only physical, but sacred — a holy moment where the veil is thin and God’s presence is undeniable.
Whether you’re preparing for birth, healing from a past experience, or simply curious about what birth looks like outside the system, this conversation will challenge, ground, and encourage you.
Join us for Part 1 this week and part 2 next week!
