After a difficult first birth that ended in a C-section, I knew I wanted a different experience the next time around.
In this episode, I’m sharing my full redemptive VBAC birth story—from the fears and doubts I carried after my first birth to the steps I took to prepare my body, advocate for myself, and approach labor with confidence.
You’ll hear what changed between my first birth and my VBAC, the role pelvic floor preparation played in my pregnancy and labor, how I built a supportive birth team, and what I wish every mom knew about advocating for the birth experience she wants.
Whether you’re hoping for a VBAC, preparing for your first birth, or simply wanting to feel more informed and empowered during pregnancy, this episode is for you.
