Episode 33- "How to Have a Successful VBAC & Do What's Right For You" with Sarah Bilger, Prenatal & Postpartum Doula
Manage episode 378182969 series 3515792
After 9 months of patience, preparation, and anticipation, what we want is a smooth, well-planned birth with a happy beginning. Unfortunately, it's common to experience the opposite. Maybe your labor wasn't what you expected. There might have been problems along the way.
Maybe you had problems or mistakes were made. Maybe your doctor or nurses didn't listen to you or honor your wishes. Or you and your baby might have experienced trauma or needed a C-section. (That's why doula work is so important. And why a lot of moms become doulas!)
There's nothing worse than feeling like you're invisible when you are at the mercy of others.
These situations are all-too-familiar for Sarah Bilger, an engineer and doula who specializes in VBAC preparation. Her passion for doula work and successful VBACs took root after her first child was born. Her baby came by C-section so she was told that this was the only option for her in the future. That didn't feel right. She listened to her gut and dove down the rabbit hole of researching.
Casual reading wasn't enough for Sarah, so she took doula certification courses. She shared what she was learning on her podcast, "Entering Motherhood." She had no idea that these decisions would change her life. Now she is helping other women prepare and experience the birth stories they are hoping for.
Listen to the show to hear more and feel inspired and validated by Sarah. Join us for a few laughs and lots of ah-ha moments. You'll enjoy Sarah's warmth, fun personality and walk away with insight and tips. (Hear some of Meredith's stories, too!)
If you've been told you must have a C-section from now on, listen for guidance and motivation so you can do what's right for you!
Bonus: As you listen to Sarah's story, pay attention to your thoughts and feelings about doula work. Is there a dream inside of you, waiting to be discovered? Maybe you're onto something. Would you enjoy a birth world career? Then reach out and let's talk about it! (Click HERE to set up a casual conversation).
