In this eye-opening episode of The OrganiMama Podcast, childbirth educator and advocate HeHe Stewart joins us to unpack the realities behind C-sections, VBACs, and the importance of informed consent in modern maternity care. HeHe brings years of experience supporting birthing families and shines a light on why C-section rates in the U.S. remain far above what the WHO recommends — and how hospital culture, provider perspectives, and unnecessary interventions all play a role.

Together, we explore why so many women desire low-intervention births, yet often feel funneled into inductions or surgical deliveries. This conversation dives into everything from the pharmacology of Pitocin to understanding induction risks, choosing a truly supportive provider, and why proper nutrition during pregnancy matters. HeHe reminds women that their provider works for them — and that advocating for your birth preferences is not only your right, but key to a safer and more empowering experience.

We wrap up with practical guidance for preparing for VBACs, C-sections, and postpartum recovery. Whether you're pregnant, planning for a future birth, or simply passionate about maternity care, this episode will leave you informed, confident, and empowered to take ownership of your birth journey.
