Freebirthing after 2 Caesarians
Ashley is a mother of three from QLD, Australia. She is the founder of the motherhood circle and the VBAC home birth stories podcast and today she will share her own VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Caesarian) freebirth story. We will start by exploring the reasons to her first two caesarians and the wisdom she gained through and from her birth trauma within the medicalized hospital system. We will then dive in to her VBAC freebirth story. Ashley never intended to freebirth, but due to her co:morbidities and being considered high risk, she couldn’t find a midwife willing to assist her in a VBAC home birth. More and more women choose to freebirth due to not being able to find a care provider that will assist them on their terms, or not trusting the maternity system. I believe it is important to share these stories and for the maternity system to realize that it’s failing women. Women are sovereign beings and birth, no matter whether you are considered high or low risk, should be a respected rite of passage and a woman’s choices honored and followed.
