47 | Carly, Santiago & Rosie - Part 2 - VBAC with Doula Support, Hypnobirthing, Perineal Massage and the Importance of Preparing both Mind & Body for Birth

This episode is part 2 of Carly’s birth stories and this week we hear about her second birth with Rosie. Check back with episode 46 for the first part if you haven’t heard it yet.

For this birth, Carly decided to go down a completely different path when it came to preparing for birth. She changed OB, hired a doula, took hypnobirthing and spinning babies classes. She got gestational diabetes in this pregnancy too but with a little one at home it was harder to manage this time around and she had to really focus on breathing and her stress-levels to make it work with.

In the end she managed to have a successful VBAC, with assistance of her wonderful doula and she shares with us how important it is to do your research. To read up on everything to be able to make informed choices.

Listen in for a very informative episode this week.
