35. Krystle Howald's Second and Third C-section Birth + Recovery


Listen Later

Krystle is back on the podcast today and we are covering her experience with her second and third C-sections. Krystle shares how her goal with her second birth was to have a VBAC and gets honest about how she felt pressured into having a C-section instead. She shares what tools have helped her the most in dealing with this birth trauma.


We ask Krystle questions around how you can set your house up for success prior to having a C-section, what it was like to come home to little ones and not be able pick them up and play with them, and what kinds of things your toddlers can do to help you recover.


For Krystle, her third C-section was the best both mentally and physically. She shares what she prioritized in order to make this true. Krystle also explains ways women can help themselves during their healing process, especially if they have diastasis recti or that C-section shelf appearance.


Our mission here at Expecting and Empowered has always been to serve C-section mamas as they recover and give them the tools that they need to feel confident in their recovery. That is why we are so proud of our two new C-section products that are out into the world; the Empowering Your C-section Birth + Recovery Course and the Empower Your C-section part inside of our app.


You can get 30% off the Expecting and Empowered App or the Empowering Your C-Section Birth + Recovery Course for this entire month by using the code ‘CSECTIONPOD30’. We hope to see you inside the app!
