200 | From Two Miscarriages to a Peaceful Birth: Amy’s Testimony

Amy walks us through two miscarriages, the holistic root-cause care that helped her family heal in between, and the beautifully unusual, deeply prayerful birth of her son, Andrew.From a centuries-old Marian devotion to a hospital room filled with Gregorian chant and prayer intentions for other women still waiting — Amy's story is a picture of what it looks like to hold suffering and hope together.Episode HighlightsAmy's story of two early losses — her son Gabriel and daughter Kiara — and the question of "is this the cross the Lord has for me?"Why she and her husband Chris sought root-cause fertility care right away instead of waiting for "recurrent" loss criteriaThe Our Lady of La Leche devotion — a centuries-old prayer for conception — and finding out she was pregnant ten days after starting itNavigating hyperemesis gravidarum, a broken foot, and a bucket-list trip to Italy in the third trimesterBuilding a birth team: a holistic OB, a low-intervention hospital-based OB, and a doulaInside the birth: 30 hours of quiet labor, a mid-labor nurse switch, and 3.5 hours of pushingOffering up each contraction and push as a prayer intention for other women walking through infertilityAmy's encouragement for women healing after loss, and for women preparing for birthResources & Links:✨”Husband-Coached Childbirth: The Bradley Method of Natural Childbirth” by Robert A Bradley and Ashley Montagu✨”Made for This: The Catholic Mom's Guide to Birth” by Mary Haseltine✨ Hallow Prayer App✨ Join Fertility Framework: If you're ready for deeper support, personalized cycle guidance, and faith-filled encouragement, come join me inside Fertility Framework!
