‘The doctor told me it was too dangerous for me to have a home birth. He said Benny was in an unusual position, that my hips were too small, and that the odds were simply not in my favor.
While four months pregnant, she had been advised to have a C-section when it came time to welcome Benjamin, but Gisele shared that she “always dreamed of giving birth naturally, at home.”
She became interested in water births after meeting a midwife named Mayra.
