On today’s show, I have the pleasure to welcome back fellow twin mama, Charlie, to share the birth story of her fraternal twin girls. If you haven’t already heard Charlie’s journey, you can revisit her first two births in episode #68—where she transitioned from a belly birth with her first baby to a VBAC homebirth transfer.
Even before the confirmation, Charlie sensed the presence of twin energy around her, though it still came as a beautiful surprise when she discovered she was carrying two babies. However, this revelation shifted her plans from a midwife-assisted homebirth to a more intentional unfolding of her journey. Rather than rush into decisions, she surrendered to the flow, taking each moment as it came, letting intuition lead the way.
Throughout her pregnancy, Charlie faced her fears head-on, allowing them to surface and be released. She used minimal scans, balancing her need to reassure her husband with her own deep faith in her body’s wisdom. Slowly, the clarity emerged—unless she felt unsafe, she would birth her twins at home, with her husband by her side.
Charlie’s story beautifully dismantles the common belief that twin births are automatically high-risk or dangerous, revealing instead the innate power of birth, even with multiples.
