Real women, real births
Birth stories from women like you
Not the highlight reel. The actual night — what surprised you, what nobody said, what you would tell a friend. Every one is read by Lissa before it is shared, and only with the writer’s permission.
This page is waiting for its first story. If you have one, the form below is where it goes — and you can ask for it to stay private, just for Lissa.

The good, the hard, the parts you still think about. Long is fine. Unfinished is fine. There is no wrong way to tell it.
A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.
