Episode 39: Surprise Pregnancy, HELLP Syndrome & a Powerful Vaginal Birth with Grace Wixon
<p>In this episode, we’re diving into a powerful, honest, and faith-filled conversation with a mama in her <strong>season of pre-conception for baby #3</strong>—reflecting on two completely different pregnancy and birth journeys that ultimately led her back to the same place: deep trust.</p><p>Grace shares how motherhood wasn’t always something she long dreamed about—but when it came into her life, it became her <strong>greatest sense of purpose</strong>.</p><p>Her <strong>first pregnancy</strong> was filled with awe and constant reminders of the miracle of life… but also fear. What began with a terrifying misdiagnosis of an interstitial ectopic pregnancy ended with an <strong>atypical HELLP Syndrome diagnosis</strong>, leading to a long and emotional <strong>3–4 day induction prior to 37 weeks</strong>—and ultimately, a vaginal delivery that required deep surrender.</p><p>Her <strong>second journey</strong> brought a completely different energy—more peace, more connection, and more trust in her body. This time, she experienced a <strong>full-term, 40+2 vaginal birth</strong>, feeling empowered and supported throughout.</p><p>In this episode, we talk about:</p><p> • Navigating pregnancies that don’t go as planned</p><p> • Building trust with your body through uncertainty</p><p> • Holding space for both fear and empowerment in birth</p><p> • Faith, surrender, and trusting God’s timing</p><p> • Nourishing yourself through every season of motherhood</p><p>Grace also opens up about how becoming a mother became an unexpected space for <strong>healing</strong>—helping her work through years of body image struggles, disordered eating, and cycles of control, and instead learning to <strong>honor and trust her body</strong>.</p><p>And a full-circle moment you won’t believe:</p><p>Grace and her husband were both surprise babies… born on the <strong>same day, in the same hospital in Roseville, just hours apart</strong>—but didn’t meet until 25 years later 🤍</p><p>Oh—and despite a <strong>3 lb and 3 inch difference between her babies</strong>, both births came down to just a few powerful pushes.</p><p>This episode is your reminder that:</p><p>✨ You don’t have to have it all planned for it to be exactly right</p><p>✨ Your body is wise</p><p>✨ And sometimes, the most unexpected paths lead you straight into your purpose</p>
