179: HOME BIRTH STORY - Building Confidence and Support for an HBAC After 2 Cesareans with Erin Holohan

How do you build the confidence and support to prepare for an HBAC after 2 cesarean births? Our guest in our latest birth story, Erin Holohan, is an example of this. After moving through 2 disappointing birth experiences with a lot of recovery and healing to do, she was determined to have her home birth for her third baby. With the love and support of her husband Mike and her awesome midwife Kelly, Erin created the vision and mindset for owning her birth.  She shares some of her prep, research and resources along the way. And then we get into the birth itself. Here’s a fun twist - it happened during a storm. Tornado warnings, power outage and all!
