[@NikkiVegan]

Ok everything you made on this day looked amazing! I'm going to try those banana muffins this weekend 🤗 Thanks for inspo and for teaming up with me! Had a great time collabing with you 💛💛

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks a bunch, Nikki! So glad we teamed up for this! Love your recipes!!!

[@marycluff1364]

Your a wise woman Erin. Was a labor and delivery nurse for eight years and fully support a natural birth experience. We always said our goal was " healthy mom healthy baby". Home births usually go well but occasionally not and your making the best choice. Will pray for you and baby for wonderful delivery. That You and Dusty will have peace. That Max will bond with his new sibling. Superb video as usual!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks for sharing your point of view! Appreciate it so much!

[@marycluff1364]

😉

[@MJ_Smallz]

Yes - definitely want to see a video about what you did to stay fit during & after pregnancy 🥰

[@EatMoveRest]

Noted!

[@ariafrost7292]

Erin can you and Dusty do a video on how you two get along as a married couple? Arguments, date nights, how couple life is

[@EatMoveRest]

We'd totally love to share a bit more about our relationship! :)

[@KaylaReisser]

Yes please. 🙏

[@pamtewes5276]

The one thing I admire SO much about you and Dusty as a couple is your lifestyle and food choices are unified! I feel like that can be challenging for me

[@laurabartz4355]

I did hands and knees with my second (3 weeks ago) and it was AMAZING- all natural, unmedicated, her sac didn’t break until her shoulders were out. Highly recommend :)

[@EatMoveRest]

Amazing! Thanks for sharing!

[@dianah.9718]

Exactly! Baby just slides out lol..no pushing uphill. Makes contractions so much more comfortable.

[@janealbertson3672]

I would love to see inspiration for movement ideas in pregnancy. I found that staying active really helped during pregnancy whether helping mitigate nausea or keeping my energy levels up. I appreciate all of these pregnancy update videos- thank you for sharing this beautiful and sacred time with all of us!

[@EatMoveRest]

Will definitely share soon!

[@TheJossan84]

I love the birth plan, especially no vit k and heb b. Very smart mama, your kids are truly lucky

[@EatMoveRest]

Thank you!!

[@lilliansantos4408]

My first baby I gave birth on the bed laying on my side, sort of in a squat position. My other three I gave birth in a big tub. My body fully submerged. I didn’t tare with any of them. I had really great midwives who worked with me. I know your going to do great. Your very prepared. I’ll keep you and your baby in my prayers. I’m so excited for your family especially Max!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks for sharing! I really appreciate your prayers and well wishes! :)

[@elisaenriquez1181]

I love hiw much control you are having over your birth. So many women don't feel they have control or even a say in how they are treated and what baby gets when born. I hope you become an inspiration to women and they can learn how to choose what is best for them and they're baby's during labor.

[@EatMoveRest]

So true! Thanks for the support!

[@mandy1365]

Love your birth plan! Our hospital sucks where we live so we did a home birth with our baby last year and it was amazing! no drugs or cutting for mama or baby is best! good luck mama!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks! Wow that's amazing!

[@emspulls8406]

Hands and knees worked amazing for me! It was really easy to tell when he was crowning and I didn't tear!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks for sharing!

[@sydneyalisonbaker]

So glad to see you two collab! I’ve watched both channels for years!

[@NikkiVegan]

💛💛💛

[@EatMoveRest]

Yay! I'm so happy to hear that!!

[@patiencehensley5685]

Erin, I SO admire you for putting your birth plan out there and showing expecting couples an alternate, more natural/gentle/safe route for labor & delivery. More couples need to hear this information, in order to feel like they have more agency and power over their experience. Pregnancy is supposed to be a beautiful and natural human experience, but unfortunately the popular stories are the horror stories (might I also add- usually due to the interventions!). I wanted to answer your question about great positions for natural delivery. For both of my babies, I was in the birthing tub on all fours (usually gripping the side of the tub for support or arms on the side of the tub) and squatting. I'd also stand and move my hips around when I could manage that. Birth assistant pushed on my low back during pushing to help low back pain. For my second birth, the exercise ball was SO helpful during the hard contractions before I entered the tub. (I'll even admit, I loved the ball so much we attempted bringing it into the water! CLEARLY that doesn't work...) But ya know in the heat of the moment it was a GREAT idea! :D Sitting on an exercise ball allowed me more hip mobility and oddly it felt like I was assisting baby work their way out. When I felt the wave of contraction coming, I grabbed onto our staircase pole/railing and pulled myself up, relieving some pain, OR I'd grip the arms of a dining room chair. I didn't plan to try these positions, they just happened organically, which is another reason why free movement is the only and best way to birth a baby!

[@EatMoveRest]

This was all SUPER helpful! Thank you so much for sharing, I really appreciate it! :)

[@thatjedininja]

This will be helpful for baby #2 for me! Thank you. I was racking all kinds of info last year when I was pregnant I was so lost and overwhelmed.

[@EatMoveRest]

Glad it was helpful!

[@cecialvarez5452]

I’m due with my second baby a month after you. Please continue sharing your pregnancy/birth/ newborn experience, following you during pregnancy has been very helpful! 🙏🏼 ✨

[@EatMoveRest]

Will do!! And congrats!!

[@justmeemi6350]

Loved it! Honestly I wish you all the best for your birth and the last few weeks of being pregnant 💕 sending over so much love and healthy vibes 🌍 and I am also glad to know you'll be in a hospital during birth (as a nurse I just know how quickly intensiv support or care is needed) 🌱🌍

[@EatMoveRest]

Thank you so much for your kind words and support! Appreciate you! :)

[@MckinleySims]

Not the biggest supporter of home births, as my mom is a physician who has seen too many fatalities from inexperienced, under qualified practitioners, as well as the hospital being inaccessible for me to ever consider. Our hospitals are not conducive for a hospital grade natural birth. I completely respect your decision and opinion over child birth. You make me have hope for a more widely available birthing center all around. Congrats on Biv. This is an extremely late comment, but I just found you guys and have hinged your videos. You guys are living right!!!! Plant based and Christian. With love ❤

[@EatMoveRest]

Glad you found us! It’s great to hear your perspective!! Thanks for the congrats!

[@kandikoated1539]

Max is getting so big and strong you guys are a beautiful family! Can't wait to see the family go from 3 to 4😘😘

[@EatMoveRest]

Awe thanks a bunch, Kandi! :)

[@erinthornton4807]

My exact birth plan 2.5 yrs ago! The fb page Your Whole Baby is a wealth of information for anyone interested in keeping a baby intact! I'm so glad we learned about it before our baby was born 🙂

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks for sharing!

[@donnayancy2401]

I came from NikkiVegan’s channel. Can’t wait to see what your style is.

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks for stopping by! :)

[@casslarkin4567]

Thoughtfully organized and I love your gentle delivery of content.

[@EatMoveRest]

Thank you for your kind words!!

[@superawesomeangel7531]

Great video! I miss those days of pregnancy and just eating being light on my feet and was happy for the most part lol. Your doing great and looking great!

[@EatMoveRest]

Awe, thank a bunch love! Enjoy seeing your comments pop up! :)

[@jenwylie4093]

The yard is looking amazing! It sounds like you are pretty ready to have this baby. :-) The 3rd trimester is when it starts to feel more real. You've got this!

[@EatMoveRest]

Can't wait! Thanks a bunch!

[@hannahpalasz8918]

Yes! Dates are my favorite! Aside from being more active this last pregnancy, I ate 6 dates a day starting at 35 weeks actually and I was 39 weeks exactly when I gave birth and had a significantly shorter labor. I labored 30hours with my first, went 5 days past my due date (not much exercise, not very healthy diet and no dates). My second pregnancy (exercised 4 days a week, mostly whole foods plants based diet with the occasional beyond burger that I craved, and 6 dates a day), and had a 9 hour labor!

[@EatMoveRest]

Wow! Thanks for sharing!!

[@practicalmagic9]

So awesome to see how you keep moving when pregnant! I was a big proponent of keeping fit during my pregnancies (mom of 8). SO much better for a healthy baby, healthy mommy, and easier deliveries (OH and recovery!).

[@EatMoveRest]

So true! Wow, way to go on 8 pregnancies! Amazing!

[@maryfurman698]

I’m a NICU nurse and you’re making a smart choice delivering at the hospital.

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks for weighing in!

[@kimveggiemama222]

Hi! NikkiVegan shared your channel. Happy to see more food ideas on whole food plant based veganism. Love your vibe :)

[@EatMoveRest]

Welcome and thanks for stopping over! :)

[@panes840]

Goshbi wish I knew half of this stuff when I was pregnant. You go girl xx

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks a bunch! It's not discussed enough!

[@TheSelfishEarth]

Yes please. A video on stay fit during pregnancy. Great video as always💕

[@EatMoveRest]

You got it!

[@nnnnnnnnnataliem]

I asked my vegetarian friend recently to send me a few recipes she loves because I wanted to try them. She sent me a link to your sweet potato, cauliflower, and lentil stew... Well that was several days ago, the dish has just finished cooking, and I'm kinda hooked on your channel!! Been watching all your videos for other ideas and to see what's going on. Just wanted to say God bless you and baby #2!! And your family. You were made for this 💕💪

[@EatMoveRest]

Awe I’m so excited to hear all of that! Thank you so much for reaching out! Appreciate you!!!

[@juliesavitski245]

I'm way past pregnancy's years but this fascinated me. What great info ! I kept thinking "if I could do that again!" lol. So happy for you and your family!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks a bunch! So glad you enjoyed this one! :)

[@DREAMITLIVEIT]

I can’t believe the celery blend so well. I have a Vitamix, need to try that too ✨🌱

[@EatMoveRest]

It's so good!

[@amyhutchinson8442]

Hi Erin, I am subscribed to Niki Vegan and she put me onto your channel which I have throughly enjoyed watching and have subscribed now so looking forward to more. Love your outlook on life and the way you raise your gorgeous family, power to you. New member with love 🙏🏻✌🏻🇦🇺

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks for stopping by, and welcome to the EatMoveRest Fam! :) So glad to have you here!!

[@sintiahutchinson7094]

Thank you for the birthing tips and the example of your birth plan. I’m gonna be implementing the same visual idea on my birth plan! What a wonderful idea! The visual will help keep everyone stay on board. It’s basically self explanatory! Infinite blessings to you and yours! Namaste sister!🙏🏼 💖🤰🏻

[@EatMoveRest]

Glad we're on the same page! :)

[@axesandaprons]

I have had 4 wonderful hospital births. Going to a hospital that is baby friendly certified makes a huge difference. The only thing I ever complain of is that during the pushing everyone forgets that the mother is thirsty!! I always bring a large water bottle now and my husbands job has been to offer the water between pushes. Little sips make for effective pushes!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks for sharing! Super helpful! :)

[@kirstenbarbero1099]

Yessss Ima May is amazing and so enpowering! I've had 3 natural, mindful births in the hospital. Did hypnobirthing with our 5 month olds birth. I was so relax that i was falling alseep between contractions. 🤭 Cherish theses moments! That golden hr is truly the highlight of my life! Its such an amazing experience! God is with you and blesses you! Can't wait to know the gender once he or she is born! 🥰😍

[@EatMoveRest]

Golden hour is definitely the best! :) Thanks for sharing all of this!

[@MegaGreencarebear]

Definitely interested in a keeping fit during pregnancy video. Great to see you working out while pregnant, super underrepresented in media.

[@EatMoveRest]

Check out our new vid!!

[@juliemelicia4442]

I loved this video! I’m currently 16 weeks and I’m really grateful for your birth plan tips 🙏

[@EatMoveRest]

Congrats! Glad this was helpful!

My sweet DIL is pregnant w/baby #3. I'm very excited to share your thougths and excellent video with her!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks! Tell her congrats for me! :)

[@francessweeney1]

I love how detailed your birth plan is, it's amazing that you've thought of everything, I wish I'd been able to do the same, unfortunately I live in Ireland and childbirth here is still very outdated and old fashioned which resulted in 3 very poor birth experiences, it was a good few years ago, 17 was my last baby but things here haven't changed much which we found out when my son's baby was born 8 weeks ago, my daughter in law wanted a water birth but was told she couldn't have one because she was so young and even her experience of not wanting to give birth on her back was completely ignored and they insisted she did it that way, I think your plan is fabulous and I would guess very comforting for you to be able to do things the way you feel best for your body and for your baby, the very best of wishes for a wonderful and enjoyable birth, love and hugs xxx

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks a bunch for sharing, and for your kind words! Appreciate you! :)

[@kseniaarie560]

Love your plan!!!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks!

[@NJG85]

Love you Erin! 👏🏼 Love this video and even though I already had my babies (wish I watched this before I had them!;) I found such wonderful inspiration for meals and love seeing you stay fit! I would love to see more workout videos and as always love your recipes! You are BEAUTIFUL inside & out! 💕 Also love Nikki Vegan! 👏🏼🤗

[@EatMoveRest]

Yay! Thank you! So glad you're a part of the EatMoveRest Fam and that we've been able. to connect and get to know each other! :)

[@HealthyVeganMama]

This is such a helpful video. I wish I had a video like this to refer to when I was having my kids. 5 years too late LOL. Loving those muffins too - going to have to try them. Excited for you guys to welcome baby #2!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks, Tia! :) The muffins are definitely a fan favorite around here!

[@tmarie69]

Thanks for walking us through your birth plan. I always hear about them but didn’t know exactly what or how they were utilized. You should definitely consider a small ebook about pregnancy. Your info is so informative and helpful. Side note: I ordered from Miami Fruit and OMG so delicious! We might have to include them in my monthly budget 🤣

[@EatMoveRest]

I'm so glad you found this so helpful! Maybe someday I will make an ebook! :) So glad you got to try some amazing tropical fruit! :)

[@shelleypicott3239]

Muffins look good and I send you best wishes for a safe delivery....I am already subscribed to Nikki Vegan's channel. Thanks for the shout out.

[@alisonmichelangelo6596]

I wish you all the best with your birth! 💖 It sounds like you have a wonderful team and lots of support. I drank Nora tea (it's a blend of red raspberry, alfalfa, oat straw and nettle) during my second pregnancy and never had any leg cramps! I had A LOT of legs cramps with my first pregnancy so I attribute it to the tea. I had my first baby in a birth center that was in a hospital. I really loved having access to all the care we needed right there as well. With my second I had a water birth at home. The warm water helped me so much with both births. I also loved diffusing lavender and other calming oils. Thanks for sharing!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks for sharing! I really appreciate it! :)

[@alittlemo9361]

That’s awesome that Max is able to stay the night at the hospital! Due to Covid, they are not letting any family into hospitals near us, no exceptions. It is definitely going to be a different experience for us this time around.

[@EatMoveRest]

They just lifted the restrictions for us a few weeks ago!

[@elisaenriquez1181]

I recommend you look into delayed cord clamping. It is so important baby's get all the blood from the placenta!!

[@EatMoveRest]

Yes we plan on doing delayed cord clamping again!🙏

[@elizabethgallaway7923]

You may have already got this question, but do you have a shareable PDF for your birth plan? I love the simplicity of it. All the ones I’ve seen seem so much more complicated.

[@msg4firuza]

Love your birth plan its perfect everything in one sheet and pictures. Great idea.

[@EatMoveRest]

So glad you found it helpful!

[@inhabitantofearth]

Organic Black Mulberry Juice (from Smart Juice brand) has 15% of iron in one cup just in case you need an extra source of iron after birth. The only ingredient is organic black mulberry juice. There are no added sugars or ingredients. I use it for my smoothies :)

Hi Erin, So excited for you! I’m actually due a week after you are and also living a vegan lifestyle for the last few years. I was very excited when we recently came across your channel. Bring on the baby times! We also completed our hypnobirthing classes and have a very similar birth plan. Our birth plan is currently 2 pages long in sentence format. Is there any chance you would be able to share your plan as it looks much easier to follow. Wishing you all the best for your labour and newborn days! Looking forward to following along with your journey here in Sydney. Natalie x

[@EatMoveRest]

Hey Natalie! If you do a Google search for "visual birth plans" there are lots of downloadable templates you can use, but I couldn't fine the exact one I used. You could check out the Mama Natural one...very similar! :)

[@JFGarden]

Came here after watching NikkiVegan's video. Wow. Love your video and I will definitely try those banana muffins. I am always looking for a way to cut out flour that my kids will love and these look very promising. Thank you.

[@nadiavega4547]

Hi erin, thanks for another awesome video. I would appreciate a video about the exercises you do for the baby to be in the right position during the final part of pregnancy. Thanks so much in advance.

[@EatMoveRest]

I recommend checking out Spinning Babies! Watch our new video as well, to see how we stay fit!!

[@samantha-kemp-therapy]

On all fours was great for both babies completely natural no drugs. With regards post part blues I think because you are an active meditator and mover I was the same and those blue moments are embraced by nature and meditation. Sharon Salzburg is excellent for self compassion or Tara Brach. Im here in England but wish I was living there. I used to live in Arizona and Wisconsin for study and still think of those places as where my heart is. Have a wonderful birth. Its so amazing isn't it. I have a boy and a girl. Now nearly as tall as me!

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks a bunch for you insight and words of wisdom! Definitely helpful to hear all of that!!

[@tararaupach6119]

Oh my goodness that birth infographic is amazing! What a great idea ive always heard you need to write the plans down, but MUCH more visually accessible like this! Did you find a template online or did you make it yourself?

[@EatMoveRest]

It's definitely the best way to go! I couldn't find the exact birth plan, but if you google "visual birth plans" there are lots of templates you can use! :)

[@jessijames2384]

Slippers. Thick comfy bathrobe. Your pillow. Chapstick. Hand lotion. Have you guys dove into frequency yet? It’s totally something you both would be interested in. Listen to music at 420 hertz. Some lady had a KZbin on here and she played meditation type music at 420. So might be really good at time of (or before) birth for everyone. The backyard looks amazing!!!! Great job guys!!!! And the tree house looks great Dusty! Good luck sister! Looking beautiful, we can’t wait to see new baby💜❤️💜

[@EatMoveRest]

Love those! Thank you! We've looked into it just a little bit, will have to more, thanks!

[@foreveryoungmama05]

Hi Erin! Could you share where you found your birth plan? Due any day now with twins! Your plan is almost to a T what I am wanting, love the simple visuals!

I don't have my exact plan anymore, not sure where it came from...but if you check out Mama Natural or do a google search for "visual birth plans" you can find something very similar! :)

I pushed on hands and knees with a warm compress to support the perineum. I had been squatting just before. I pushed twice and caught my babe. The position felt right for me and the warm compress felt nice and I felt confident and supported.

Last time I watched your vlog was when baby Max was born, now he's going to have a sibling---and a water baby (Cancer), not that it matters lol...but I love them water babies :P I'm not a mom yet but I used to watch Mamma Natural too. I thought you already knew about her when Max was born because your approach was similar. Have a safe delivery, coming soon!

That’s so awesome that your hospital is so accommodating! I love it! My first 2 hospital births were not good for me or the babies. We did go with a birth center for my 3rd child and loved that experience. I’d love to do a home birth next. Having these choices for each of our families is great! I did Spinning Babies and Hypnobabies. I like Insight Timer for meditation. There’s one by Ela Grace on there and it’s 5 minute morning. I pray to Jesus thanking Him all the way through. I wanted to squat with my youngest, but my body said no😂 I was on all fours. I avoided tearing following the essential oil regimen in the book Gentle Babies by Debra Raybern/Starkey. We didn’t bathe my youngest right away either or do any of the other typical hospital birth things. My third guy was my healthiest birth and child.

@@EatMoveRest you are welcome! I’ll be praying for another wonderful healthy birthing experience for you! Keep being that bright light that’s so lacking on social media! Many blessings to all of you in Yeshua’s name!

@@EatMoveRest oh I also wanted to say that I didn’t do a water birth either. I was considering it and then I read some I believe in The Nourishing Traditions Child & Baby book. I realize it’s very much not vegan, but I thought there was a lot of wisdom in it. I wanted to dehydrate and capsulize my placenta, but it just didn’t wind up happening. We couldn’t afford a doula. My husband was supposed to do it, but he was so busy that it didn’t get done. I always wondered if it would have made a difference for me. I was 38 when I delivered and I was diagnosed with Hashimotos quite some time after childbirth. I truly wonder if it would’ve been the boost I needed to keep my hormones in better balance.

I wish I had known all this when I had my kids !

[@EatMoveRest]

It's not talked about enough!

Saved my placenta... used in smoothies. I found it so helpful. The other option you have is to take it home and plant it with a tree.
