I am currently pregnant with my third child. My two older girls were exclusively breastfed as I was fortunate enough to stop working after my first was born. I tried getting into a pumping routine with my first but did not like it nor did I feel it was necessary for me personally. I didn’t even pull out the electric breastpump at all for my second.

Funny thought about cows getting lost in a storm - on the movie Twister, as they're chasing a storm in their truck, I have always found the scene when the cow gets blown both ways across the road in front of them so funny! "I gotta go, Linda. We got cows!..." "'Nuther cow..." "Nope, that's the same one." 🐄 😂 Now, labor is not (usually) a tornado you have no control over that will destroy you! Just a storm you can run into, endure, be grateful for, get out of sooner than running from it, and have a beautiful new baby as the result! ❤

This is the best, faith-filled birth story I've ever watched! This is exactly how I "plan" on my fourth home birth going in September, Lord-willing! My 8yo son, 6yo & 4yo daughters all want to be present, but especially our son. I have been slowly talking with them about what to expect when with labor & delivery, and today I started showing them some (pre-screened) videos of peaceful home births, which only made them more excited! My "best," easiest birth was, by far, my now 6yo, who came a week "early" so I didn't have all the things ready and my husband & I did a lot of prep work until I couldn't focus on anything but the contractions. Everything progressed so much faster, transition was quick - I didn't even have the "I can't do this!" moments as I did with #1 & #3 - so we called the midwife a little late... By the time they got there I had already been reflexively pushing for maybe 15 min....baby was born 10 min later! Keeping busy in early labor is Absolutely the key! I have a To-do list and activity list written down for when real labor starts. It's in order of getting everything ready first, then just either keeping busy by doing projects, baking, walking, taking a shower, dancing, making love with my husband (while the kids are asleep or watching a movie....and how far depends on if my water has broken), watching a funny movie/videos (keep the oxytocin flowing!), etc!

I hear your heart and concern. ❤️ I have thought and prayed about it, but for me I think Jesus is Lord over every move our body could do and He made the body to move. I think man twisted these movements and gave names to the movements to their fake gods. My intent with yoga is movement and stretching and I do not attend yoga classes where they are practicing elements that make me uncomfortable. I just think this is an open handed issue where the Holy Spirit leads and guides and for me personally it is not something I feel convicted about at this time. But I do genuinely appreciate your concern, because I would never want to lead someone astray ❤️

Congratulations! What a blessing! With that said, I've been there. Due with my 9th in 2 weeks. You can do it. God will walk you through it. It's hard. But it's so worth it. I was so scared to continue trusting God with our family size before having our fifth, but the Lord clearly said to me one day " is it really trust when you only trust me when it's easy?" I knew then I needed to trust him and our daughter was conceived shortly after that. That little girl was the biggest ray of sunshine. My kids after it's been easier because I can say what if I had said no to my 5th little one? How much less joy would I have. I know this baby will bless you beyond measure.

What a great video Lana! I had the villian mentality this week with my chickens honestly. My husband let them out to forage and they did not want to come in. Usually we shake a bag of treats and they all listen so well. Trying to chase down chickens while 38 weeks pregnant in the heat got me heated. I responded in anger and my tone of voice scared them! Being so close to motherhood, I really turned to the Lord in conviction as I do not want to react to my baby like that at all!!! This video came at such a good time sister. God has used you in so many ways in my life and I am so grateful for how you not only share your struggles, but solutions that are grounded in truth with Jesus at the center in ways that are practical and easy to implement. Filing this video away for when we become parents. Thank you so much! God bless you always!
