“Having a birth plan is about not just checking boxes but having the information to make informed choices.
“If you’re going to be a mom who kind of downloads a free template, checks a bunch of boxes and then, you know, pats themselves on the back- That’s not really the intention of birth planning.
The point is to look into all the details, the pros, the cons, what the intervention is, so that you feel good to make a choice, no matter what happens.
If your plan goes to plan, that’s great, but if it doesn’t go to plan, you’ll feel good about making decisions in the process that you can walk away from birth feeling really empowered from!” - Miranda

PART 1 ✨The “hot minute” where time stands still as the universe gathers its breath to witness the miracle of new life.
In that fleeting moment,
every heartbeat,
every tear,
every whispered promise,
converges into an awe-inspiring crescendo of love and possibility.
It’s a symphony of emotions—joy, fear, anticipation—intertwined in the tender embrace of a newborn’s first cry, echoing the resounding beauty of creation itself.
In that brief but infinitely powerful moment, we are reminded of the sheer magic and resilience of the human spirit, and the boundless capacity of love to transform the world. 💫
