Our Unplanned Home Birth Story

SURPRISE!! She is here! Dorothy Marie aka “Dottie” made her grand entrance in an unintentional HOME BIRTH! 🤰🏻😳😱👶🏻🎉💕Wow. I cannot even believe I am saying this. She came so fast and furious we didn’t even have time to get in the car to go to the hospital before her head started crowning!!! 😱 Tyler and I never thought we would EVER deliver our baby in the middle of our living room floor. Tyler says it’s was the most thrilling/ scary 20 minutes of his life. 😳😅

Y’all the Lord was so good in giving me peace through it all and my body just knew exactly what to do— it was insane. I’m so thankful to God for getting us through this with a healthy and precious baby girl. We are all resting now and soaking up the newborn snuggles.

Tap the video to hear the whole story. It’s seriously the craziest story to tell and I am just so amazed at God getting me through this safely & what the human body can do. She is a tiny miracle! Dorothy— aka God’s gift to us!
