EP171 - Vanessa, Fourth Birth, Navigating Profound Grief Through Pregnancy, VBAC, Unmedicated Birth

This week I share my chat with Vanessa who talks me through her fourth birth story. Vanessa’s story is different to most as we revisit how she navigated grief while also trying to focus on her pregnancy. Just one week after Vanessas sister, Lisa left this world Vanessa discovered she was pregnant with her fourth baby.

Vanessa gave birth to her son in hospital with the support of her husband and midwives. We also chat through despite experiencing life with a newborn for the fourth time it can still be hard to manage it all. Vanessa mentions that asking for help was everything!

Thank you Vanessa @calminglittlefeet
