#62 | What Your Doctor Won't Tell You About VBAC


Listen Later

Have you been told VBAC is too risky?

In this episode, Karen pulls back the curtain on the fear-based messaging surrounding VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) and delivers the real evidence every mom deserves to know. If you’ve ever been told VBAC is too risky, this episode is your permission slip to ask better questions, trust your intuition, and get truly informed before making one of the biggest decisions of your life.

Tune in to hear:

  • The real evidence behind VBAC success rates (hint: it’s not 15%!)
  • Why so many OBs still quote 100-year-old beliefs about birth
  • The actual risk of uterine rupture—and what doctors aren’t telling you
  • How fear-based care is keeping women in the dark
  • The difference between relative risk and real risk
  • The risks of repeat C-sections that almost no one talks about
  • What it means to get true informed consent
  • 5 powerful ways to prepare for a successful VBAC
  • Why choosing the right provider is the #1 decision you’ll make
