I Wasn't Supposed to Survive Childbirth—Here's What I Experienced
What Researchers Found
The Story
The experiencer was a woman in labor when she had her NDE. Her water broke, and the baby's heart rate became dangerously high. During contractions, the baby's heart stopped. In the hospital, she saw a shadowy figure and felt she was dying. She experienced a portal opening and felt connected to every soul that ever existed. She saw glimpses of her son's future life and felt peace about his survival. Eventually, she accepted a C-section, feeling serene and connected to God. During the surgery, she felt an angel holding her hand. Afterward, she heard her baby cry, feeling a sense of peace and connection to all existence. This experience transformed her understanding of life and death, making her feel connected to everyone and everything.
