Host Elsa welcomes doula and doula mentor Ann Morris, a mom of three based in Lawrenceville, Georgia, to discuss motherhood, birth, and postpartum. Ann shares how her first fast, intense hospital birth in New York City—ending with an ambulance ride and a late-pregnancy doula hire—sparked her passion for birth work. After becoming a doula, she planned and had a peaceful home birth for her second baby in Florida and emphasizes learning from positive birth stories and preparing for postpartum, especially breastfeeding support. She describes postpartum anxiety, exclusive pumping, and relationship strain after her first, then recounts her third birth in Georgia: challenges accessing home birth care, a hospital pivot after her water broke days early, and a last-minute chiropractic adjustment that helped trigger labor, culminating in a rapid surprise baby girl. Ann highlights grace, informed choice, and trusting God-given intuition.
