A Vibrator as a "Natural Epidural"? Thabata Devecchi on Pleasure, Intuition, and Birth Connection - Ep 176

In this enlightening episode of Orgasmic Birth: The Podcast, Debra meets Thabata Devecchi, a prenatal educator and founder of Feeling Moms, who shares her powerful home birth story and how pleasure practices helped her turn pain into power. Thabata reveals how self-pleasure, embodied movement, sound, and safety transformed her birth experience. She describes using a vibrator during labor to soften the peak of contractions — calling it her "natural epidural" — and shares how deep preparation, somatic awareness, and tantra shaped her pregnancy, birth, and sense of empowerment. Together, Debra and Thabata explore how pleasure, intuition, and body awareness can transform not just birth, but motherhood and self-connection.
