16. Kristin Hauser on Holistically Handling Excessive Bleeding at Home

16. Kristin Hauser on Holistically Handling Excessive Bleeding at Home

Author: Emilee Saldaya November 14, 2025 Duration: 1:20:54

This week, I’m joined once again by Kristin Hauser, a beloved and regular guest on the Free Birth Society Podcast. We weave through the stories of Kristin’s four births, with a special focus on her most recent freebirth and the profound lessons it offered.


Kristin shares the raw reality of experiencing excessive bleeding in her fourth birth, and how it initiated her into a new relationship with her blood and her body. For the first time in her mothering journey, she was required to stay in bed and truly receive care, nourishment, and love from the women around her.


In this conversation, Kristin reflects on how birth taught her not only resilience but also the art of receiving. Her story is a powerful reminder of how important the web of support is for us during these sacred times.

Emilee Saldaya hosts Free Birth Society, a podcast that delves into the profound and personal choice of freebirth. This is not a discussion about home birth with professional support, but an intimate exploration of childbirth that unfolds without midwives, doulas, or medical intervention, guided solely by the birthing person and their family. Through conversations with wild women from around the globe, each episode presents a raw and unfiltered narrative, focusing on the lived experiences, the emotional landscapes, and the deep, often unspoken trust in the body's innate wisdom. These stories are honest, sometimes gripping, and frequently transformative, challenging mainstream perceptions of safety and authority. The dialogue within this podcast serves as both education and a form of self-improvement, examining the reclaiming of autonomy and the reconnection to ancestral knowledge. Listeners will hear not just the mechanics of unassisted birth, but the philosophical and personal journeys that lead individuals to this path. Emilee, as founder and guide, facilitates these discussions with a clear, grounded presence, allowing the complexity and beauty of each story to resonate. This podcast is for those curious about the edges of conventional maternity care, seeking to understand a paradigm where birth is treated as a private, powerful, and physiological event rather than a medical procedure. The Free Birth Society podcast creates a space for these rarely heard voices, offering a tapestry of experiences that are, above all, true to themselves.
