COMING SUMMER 2026

CALLING CATHOLIC MAMAS

There’s nothing quite like a beautiful birth story — and I know I’m not the only one who feels that way. I’m compiling stories for an ebook that will come out this summer, and I’d LOVE to hear yours!

If you’d like your story to be considered for publication, please respond to the questions below and email your submission (attached as a word doc—NOT a pdf) to hello@theycw.com by March 30th.

  1. Name, Email, Date Of Birth Story, And Age During Labor

  2. Tell us about what led up to your pregnancy (infertility, miscarriages, previous children, period of avoidance)

  3. Tell us what you imagined your birth would be like (wanted to go natural, planned a home birth, went totally open, etc)

  4. Tell us your birth story!

  5. How did you see God act through your labor?

  6. What are some practical words of advice you would have for expectant mothers (prayers, exercises, things you would have done different).

Length: 2,000 word max

Please note: This is a volunteer-based project, and while we are unable to offer financial compensation, we are deeply grateful for your willingness to share your story.
