We are a team of expert doulas trained in supporting VBAC, have had VBAC's of our own, and work extensively with VBAC women and their providers. We are here to provide detailed VBAC and Cesarean prevention stories and facts in a simple, consolidated format. When we were moms preparing to VBAC, it was stories and information like we will be sharing in this podcast that helped fine tune our intuition and build confidence in our birth preparation. We hope this does the same for you! The purpose of this podcast is to educate and inform- it is not to replace advice from any qualified medical professional.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-30T04:21:17.173800+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-vbac-link-743493"},"episode":{"title":"464 LONG Pregnancies + LONG Labors | Lily & Paige","slug":"464-long-pregnancies-long-labors-lily-paige","published_at":"2026-07-08T07:10:17+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-vbac-link-743493/464-long-pregnancies-long-labors-lily-paige","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-vbac-link-743493","url":"https://thevbaclink.com/","audio_url":"https://audio2.redcircle.com/episodes/aca2b3cb-31b5-4b13-b570-4f9f763356fb/stream.mp3","summary":"Today’s episode is a deep dive with just Paige and Lily all about LONG pregnancies and LONG labors.
