Kat's Birth Story: From VBAC to Emergency C Section

In this episode, Kat shares her powerful and emotional birth story.

From raspberry leaf tea to acupuncture, induction herbs, dates, evening primrose oil, perineal massage, and even colostrum collection, Kat takes us through everything she tried in the hopes of achieving a VBAC. Despite her best efforts, her journey led to a second emergency c-section - and with it, the lessons and peace she found in knowing she had done everything she could.

We talk through the emotional rollercoaster of birth, her tips for postpartum recovery, and the surreal moment where Jess experienced a miscarriage while Kat was in labour - a true reminder of the complexity of womanhood and the shared experiences of our bodies.
