Giving birth in the car: “I looked in my pants and saw her hair.” (Audience caller)
The moment Chelsea realized she couldn't sit down, something told her this was going to be a day unlike any other. Her story of giving birth to her second child, which unfolds like a scene straight out of a movie, kicks off our latest podcast episode with a bang. All stories of labor and delivery are unique, often leaving parents' expectations flipped upside down, but the raw power of motherhood always shines through. From the pulse-pounding dash to the hospital to Chelsea's astonishing car birth, we're sharing tales that underscore the unpredictability of childbirth and the incredible strength women possess. Chelsea's roadside delivery, complete with a Macy's backdrop, an unproductive 911 call, and sweatpants that are forever stained, turned an 11-minute drive into a life-changing journey with a very happy ending.
