Bode Miller Shares The Intense And ‘Emotional’ Story Behind The Home Birth Of His Twins

When you find out you’re having twins, it comes as a huge surprise. Some couples are more genetically predispositioned to the possibility than others, but still. It’s a big deal when you need to multiply the amount of supplies you need prior to their birth. 41-year-old World Cup alpine ski racer Bode Miller likely didn’t know what to expect until his wife, Morgan, went into labor. The two opted for a home birth, making it even more personal.

Bode and Morgan welcomed their sons, Aksel and Asher, just 15 weeks ago. However, they’re finally open to sharing the details. Morgan made a story about what happened on Instagram. Prior to sharing, she warned fans to “continue with an open mind and an open heart…and a strong stomach.”

Morgan didn’t want to share the story just because. She wanted to emphasize the fact that women really do go through a lot throughout pregnancy. What happens during labor changes them forever. While most of these changes aren’t bad, it’s still a truth that often gets pushed aside. Women really are superheroes, and it’s important for everyone to know what birth is really like.
