- Thank you for sharing hope!
I highly recommend the VBAC link podcast and all the amazing resources on their website as well. I am currently preparing for a VBAC after a traumatic experience with my first. Hearing the stories on this podcast has given me so much hope and confidence for my own journey. Thank you for what you do to help women learn and advocate for themselves!

United States13 days ago - Evidence and empathy in one place
As a doula in Berlin and a mom who has had both cesareans and a VBAC, I love how this podcast combines evidence with real stories. It helps me support my clients and reminds every listener that a cesarean doesn't have to decide your next birth. Thank you!

Germany13 days ago - Wonderful VBAC Prep Resource!
Recently started listening as I prepare for a VBAC 🤞🏻 after traumatic c-section. I appreciate the non-judgemental, inclusive approach from Lily and Paige and love that there’s a backlog of episodes available on so many topics. Each helps me learn something new about different complications others have experienced that I can be aware of so that I’m informed and better prepared to advocate in my next birth.

Long time listener, first time reviewer. After my first emergent (and traumatic) birth, I’ve been listening to VBAC LINK — it’s been such a great resource to know others who have gone thru similar experiences and who are aiming for something different. I’ve saved a bunch of episodes as repeat listens as I get closer to my second birth!

I love listening to the VBAC link. I had a traumatic c-section with my son (2nd baby) and we are going to start trying for our 3rd baby in January and I feel so empowered and motivated for a VBAC! I hope next time I am pregnant I can update on a successful VBAC!! Great job ladies for cultivating a safe space for women to talk about birth 🤍
