From C-Section to VBAC to Freebirth: Lizzy’s Redemptive Journey

In this powerful episode, Lizzy shares her journey through three very different births—each one shaping her in profound ways. Her first birth began with an induction and ended in a c-section. Her second, a planned home VBAC with midwives, became a traumatic hospital transfer that left her feeling disregarded, abandoned, and deeply vulnerable. These experiences led Lizzy to reclaim her power with her third baby—a beautiful, redemptive freebirth at home with just her husband and two children present. She opens up about how that final birth not only healed her, but also healed her marriage, which had been on the brink of divorce. Lizzy speaks candidly about the stark contrast in her postpartum recovery, and how this last birth gave her the strength, confidence, and wholeness she had long been searching for. Her advice to future mamas? Do your research, know that you have options, and never settle for anything that makes you feel uncomfortable.
