In this powerful episode, Maria shares her incredible birth story that defied medical expectations. Faced with a low-weight baby and pressure for a C-section, Maria advocated fiercely for her desired natural birth. Her journey takes an unexpected turn when her newborn receives a rare genetic diagnosis - Wolff Hirschhorn syndrome. Listen as Maria recounts her experience of navigating medical challenges, trusting her instincts, and ultimately finding joy and purpose in her unique motherhood journey.

Inspired by her experience, Maria created the app "Natural Birth by Ecco," offering quick, easy tips for labor and delivery. This episode is a testament to the power of self-advocacy in birth, resilience in the face of unexpected diagnoses, and the transformative nature of unconditional love.
