#16. VBAC home birth? How she got there. A Birth Story By Britt Havens
Welcome back to the labor room podcast. Today you get to hear from Britt Havens, a mom of four who shares her birth stories from her first baby that was born via cesarean section all the way down to her eventual VBAC at home with her 4th baby. Britt touches on how the cascade of interventions in the hospital contributed to her ultimate cesarean birth while also reminding us that hospital birth is absolutely the right choice for some people, every birth story is unique, and each mother gets to write her own story one birth at a time.
In this episode you hear about things like making the decision to have a home birth, how she accomplished her successful VBAC, birth plans, prodromal labor, Chorioamnionitis, epidural headache, and more.
