Birth Story 18: Angela's Positive C-Section and VBAC


Listen Later

In today's birth story, Angela shares about her first birth, a Cesarean birth, and how she then went on to have a VBAC (or a vaginal birth after C-section) for her second birth. Angela was really passionate about wanting to share her story because she had a really positive C-section experience, and she wanted others to know that it is possible to have a good experience, even with something that can feel scary, like a Cesarean birth!
