Birth Reclaimed

30/10/2026

Guys planning your VBAC shouldn’t be scary.

It shouldn’t be hard to access fact based care.

You shouldn’t feel forced into accepting medical care that’s not evidence based.

Why is this the scary truth all over the uk then?

Having a baby and planning their arrival should be an exciting and special time - and a VBAC shouldn’t feel any different.

I’m absolutely obsessed with VBACS and helping you get the birth that’s you want, on your terms. Even when it feels like the system is plotting against you.

Honestly these headlines really grind you down. When I was last pregnant it really felt hopeless everything was presented as such a mess.

Sadly not much has changed. If anything more services are being removed. But it is still possible to have a positive and wonderful birth experience- but it won’t just land on your lap.

If you’re here you probably already know that. You’re not afraid to ruffle a few feathers to get you & your baby the birth you deserve.

But doing it alone can make the task feel bigger then it needs to.

Why not explore virtual doula support & see if that could be exactly what you need 🩶

Honestly your the only one who’s birthing your baby, your secretly considering a homebirth but worried about what people might say?

Judgement. Horror stories. Being told you’re not allowed.

Not giving AF is such a good skill to develop here.
Everyone has an opinion.

You know that person can’t even make your tea how you like it, or decorates their home in a totally different style, why would you let their opinion on birth after caesarean affect you when it’s unlikely they have any knowledge on the topic.

Alternatively keeping your plans to your self is totally valid. The whole office dosnt need to know your birth plans.

BUT there is absolutely huge value in connecting with other people with the same plans as you.

Something is coming for families planning a homebirth after c section. And I can’t wait to share it with you.

I know how overwhelming it can feel - the information is all out there but where to start?

I’ve brought together a whole host of useful resources for anyone planning a vbac in the UK.

Start knowing your options to make your choices.

Nothing makes me more frustrated then hearing people saying
“I wasn’t told that”
“I didn’t know that was an option”
“I was told that was very risky, I wish I knew the actual stats”

Treat my VBaC library as your springboard to knowing more. Link in bio. Or just Google VBaC library.

Nothing makes me more sad and frustrated than people having their options removed, sometimes before they even know they have options.

It’s very clear many health care providers will not even talk you through your choices honestly.

Unfortunately it’s becoming more and more common that you need to take control yourself - do your own research, be bold in your conversations, resolute in your choices.

If that feels overwhelming, come say hi. I’ve been where you are. Everyone assumed I’d have my third c section booked from the get go.

I’ve got plenty of free resources to help you start your mission towards the birth you want - head to my VBAC library.

I also offer 1:1 vbac doula support, helping you work out what’s right for you. Remote sessions wherever you are in your planning.

VBAC shouldn’t be a mystery or scary.

I know how temping it is to use these “tools” as if they will give you a glimpse of the future. But here’s proof they absolutely can’t.

Always consider what you will do with the information you receive. You can’t undo it once you have it.

Would thinking my vba2c chance was 12% have shaken me? Of course! I’m human and that would have been very hard to work with.

That could have shown up in labour and I might not have had the strength to keep going.

My birth preparation was intentional, thorough and rooted in strong evidence.

If you are seeking personalised vbac support to build your confidence, your mindset and your resilience come and explore my vbac doula package. It can be totally online so accessible to anyone in the uk 🩶

I hear so often from you that your birth partners, dads, sisters, families are not supportive of your VBAC plans - and while it’s easy to say “not their body, not their choice” the reality is your VBAC is more likely to be successful if you feel fully supported by those closest to you 🙌

So I’ve created a free easy to read handout answering the top 10 most asked questions about VBAC for you to share with them. 🫶

I can’t guarantee they’ll change their mind but it will help them understand choosing a VBAC is not dangerous selfish or reckless. And you may just find you do have their support when you need it the most

I hear it all the time.

No point making a birth plan.
You can’t control birth
It all goes out the window when your screaming for an epidural
No one ever reads them
I didn’t care once I was in labour.
You’ll just be disappointed when plans change

Newsflash! Your birth plan isn’t a set menu! It’s more like a recipe book to pick and choose from.

Knowing what’s on offer helps you understand what you do or don’t fancy/need/want on the day.

And your birth plan might well be get me an epidural- make sure you know how & when to get it - how to optimise it and how to reduce the risks associated with it.

A birth plan is less about that bit of paper and more about the knowledge and thought behind it. You plan for X but will be happy with Y if needed but under no circumstances do you want Z.

Your birth partner needs to know it to help advocate your wishes and rights. And park it under your healthcare professional’s noses.

There’s even research showing that people who prepared more thoroughly for their labours experienced them as less painful!

Bottom line - if you want a medicalised birth in the hospital then skip the birth plan because that’s pretty much what’s on offer when you go with the flow because it’s the hospital flow.

If you want to get clued up and well prepared all my 1:1 hypnobirthing and birth prep sessions include a birth plan review.

I’d love to help you prepare for a better birth
