  • Summary

  • In this episode we meet Kate who had an emergency caesarean under general anaesthetic with her eldest daughter Elsie, and has since gone on to have two VBACs; one with Florence and another with George. The journey to conceive Florence wasn’t an easy one, it took 6 years and with the aid of IVF. During her pregnancy with Florence she was very undecided as to whether to pursue a VBAC or have a repeat caesarean. It was only at 36 weeks pregnant through a chance meeting and session with a chiropractor that she became aware of independent midwives and decided to meet with one. Listen to how at 36 weeks the pendulum began to swing towards VBAC for Kate and how Florence’s birth unfolds, and how she went on to have a water birth with her miracle baby George only 17 months after. **VBAC Birth Stories features women's lived experiences.
