Not all doctors are very helpful, unfortunately. Sometimes, it can take multiple opinions until you find a doctor that really knows what they’re talking about. Trust your gut. If what your doctor says doesn’t sound right - I recommend getting a second opinion to double check. 🥰

A pregnant woman sits in a bathtub, with two people leaning over, illustrating the article's title: 'Why I Chose To Give Birth Outside a Hospital'.

A pregnant woman in a bathtub with two people leaning over, accompanied by a list of reasons for choosing an out-of-hospital birth, such as avoiding a medical approach and having freedom.

A shirtless man holds a newborn baby wrapped in a towel, engaging in skin-to-skin contact, as described by the text about the midwife's suggestion for the father.

Why I chose to NOT give birth in a hospital!

This is the third in my little series, (1) my natural birth story and (2) why I chose to give birth naturally. This time, I’ll describe my reasons for planning to birth OUTSIDE a hospital (I would’ve chosen home, but my husband was a bit nervous so an independent birthing center was a perfect in-b

A family photo with diverse children and two adults on a couch, with a young blonde girl circled. Below, a collage shows the same girl at different ages. The text reads, "IT WASN'T A HOME. IT WAS A CONTRACT."

Seven children, including the narrator identified in the top right, pose in swimwear by a pool. The text states, "THAT'S ME IN THE TOP RIGHT - STILL THINKING THIS WOULD BE THE FAMILY I DESERVED."

A collage of four childhood photos, including girls in swimsuits, a girl with a man, and children eating. The overlaying text reads, "WE WERE JUST KIDS."

They wanted a check - Not a child.

I was adopted when I was 3. Fostered before that, since I was 2. And from the outside, it probably looked like I got lucky. We had nice clothes. Took family trips. Had birthday parties every year. But deep down, I always felt like I didn’t really belong. Like I was there… but not wanted.

Dear Doctors and Nurses of America...

The real damage isn’t just illness - it’s being ignored, dismissed, and told it’s “nothing.” Chronic illness patients aren’t the problem. Not being heard is. Normalize listening to patients the first time they say something’s wrong. #dobetter #chronicillness #chronicpain #invisibleillness

Not all healthcare careers = doctors & nurses 🩺

When people think of healthcare, they usually picture stethoscopes, scrubs, and busy hospital hallways. That’s what I imagined too when I first stepped into the field, I shadowed dentists, volunteered in clinics, and saw firsthand the incredible work doctors and nurses do. But here’s the thing: I d
