Today Mel shares her second VBAC birth story with her third baby Emilia.
Her birth was a surprise breech homebirth, which was somewhat poetic given her primary caesarean was due to her first baby being breech. Her second birth in a public hospital under caseload midwifery care was a successful unmedicated VBAC (You can listen to this story in episode 2).

We talk about Mel’s decision to homebirth, the implications of covid on her pregnancy, the complications she faced in Emilia’s pregnancy when she was found to have a Ventricular Septal Defect at 20 weeks and how her third birth unfolded at home.
