Pregnancy Isn’t a Protocol: Reclaiming Intuition + Support That Sees You | Reyna Wilson
After a long road to conception, this pregnancy felt like an invitation to do things differently. In today’s episode, I’m sharing how we supported my husband’s fertility, conceived with PCOS symptoms, and made intentional choices—from out-of-hospital birth plans to navigating legal roadblocks as a VBAC mama. We’ll talk about building a supportive care team, healing from our first birth, and the resources that helped us stay grounded and aligned with our values. If you’re craving a more intuitive, whole-person approach to pregnancy and birth—I hope this episode serves you well. This is the perfect kick off for our MAMA Series, and I hope you enjoy it!
