Скачать или смотреть 282// Homebirth VBAC After C-Section: My Unmedicated Birth Story #2

Are you a momma looking to go from a C-section to a medicated or unmedicated VBAC?


Are you considering doing a home birth, but are worried your history of breech babies or Caesareans?


Or - are you simply an avid listener of mine who has been wanting to be a fly on the wall and hear my birth story for baby #2?


 


If you said "yes" to any of these questions, then this episode is for you!


 


In today’s episode, I’m sharing my full VBAC birth story. Everything from what it looked like to pursue a vaginal birth after cesarean after my first child’s delivery ended in surgery. To asking the question, “Should I have a home birth or not?” To facing breech pregnancy fears, working with a midwife, and preparing for both the risks and advantages of a homebirth. Whatever it is, I’m taking you inside every step of my pregnancy for baby #2.


 


You’ll hear what surprised me most about my VBAC recovery versus C-section recovery, what I learned about tearing during birth and birth hematomas, and my honest perspective on whether vaginal or cesarean recovery is harder. I’ll also share what the HARDEST part of my mental hurdles — the fear of a repeat 48-hour labor, the doubt over my body’s progress, and how I finally delivered in just 14 hours.


 


If you’re pregnant, considering a VBAC in pregnancy, or curious about the pros and cons of homebirth, this story will give you insight, encouragement, and the reality behind one mom’s choice to write a new birth story.


 


And because easy, nutritious food was one of my greatest supports through pregnancy and postpartum recovery, I want to give you a FREE GIFT on this episode: my 60+ page family recipe book.
