Three Unmedicated Births & The Reality of Postpartum: Kate Hill’s Story
For many mothers, the journey to unmedicated birth begins with personal curiosity. But for Kate Hill, it was her chiropractor husband who was first curious about the idea of natural birth. What started as an open-minded exploration became a passion for holistic pregnancy, birth, and postpartum health.
In this episode of the Bare Birth Podcast, Kate shares her transformative experience giving birth to three children naturally and how each birth shaped her understanding of motherhood, health, and healing.
From Skepticism to Confidence: Kate’s Birth Journey
Kate didn’t always imagine herself having unmedicated births. Like many women, she was initially uncertain about the idea of laboring without intervention. But with her growing interest in holistic health, she dove into research, learning about the benefits of natural birth.
Her first two births were empowering experiences that solidified her confidence in her body’s ability to birth. By the time she was pregnant with her third, she felt prepared—but that birth experience still brought new lessons, including the raw power of the fetal ejection reflex.
Postpartum: The Part We Don’t Talk About Enough
While many women focus on birth, Kate has become passionate about what happens next: the postpartum season. She opens up about the depletion that so many mothers experience—emotionally, physically, and nutritionally—but that isn’t often talked about. She shares the importance of nourishing and replenishing the body after birth, leaning on a strong support system, and recognizing that postpartum recovery is just as significant as birth preparation.
The Role of Chiropractic Care in Motherhood
Kate and her husband own a Chiropractic Care office in Texas! Credence Chiropractic. She discusses the impact it has had on her pregnancies and births. From easing common pregnancy discomforts to supporting optimal fetal positioning, chiropractic adjustments played a key role in her journey. She also emphasizes its benefits for postpartum healing and newborn wellness.
Empowering Women to Prepare for Birth & Beyond
Kate’s story is a reminder that birth is just the beginning of the motherhood journey. While unmedicated birth can be incredibly empowering, it’s equally important to prepare for the postpartum season with just as much intention.
