26. C-section to Home Birth: Dr Emily’s Birth Story


Listen Later

This episode I’m so excited to invite Dr Emily Brownlee to discuss her own birth journey as she navigated from a traumatic but oh so common induction story that led to her first c-section and how she eventually got her VBAC only 17 months later!  She is now preparing for a home birth with her third baby as she builds her pelvic floor community with Pelvic Floor Fit!  

Emily is a pelvic health physical therapist, and certified pre and postnatal fitness coach. It is her passion to empower mamas in achieving a pain-free pregnancy, the birth of their dreams, and a confident postpartum recovery. As a c-section and VBAC mama, she has navigated seasons of motherhood the hard way and the peaceful way. It is her mission to teach mamas how they can trade only 10 minutes a day for true support of their pelvic health and perinatal fitness.
