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":"Episode 451 Erin’s Twin VBAC + Cholestasis","slug":"episode-451-erin-s-twin-vbac-cholestasis","published_at":"2026-04-08T14:00:57+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-vbac-link-743493/episode-451-erin-s-twin-vbac-cholestasis","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-vbac-link-743493","url":"https://thevbaclink.com/","audio_url":"https://audio2.redcircle.com/episodes/9dc32e4b-4f2f-4233-8177-7c325a8d6899/stream.mp3","summary":"Is it possible to have a VBAC with multiples? YES. In honor of Cesarean Awareness Month, Erin, a registered dietitian and mom of four (under 5!), shares her journey through cesarean, VBAC, miscarriage, and a twin VBAC. She opens up about navigating postpartum anxiety, benefiting from medication, and how her hard work and growth helped her have a different mindset when a lot of similar things happened in subsequent births. Erin’s first birth was a cesarean during COVID due to fetal heart decels, her second was a healing VBAC and her third and fourth births were an induced twin VBAC for cholestasis. Her stories touch on miscarriage, close pregnancy intervals, di-di twin pregnancy, provider support, membrane sweeps, epidural and Pitocin. She also shares the realities of postpartum recovery, breastfeeding with a nipple shield, and facing a neonatal emergency when one of her twins required surgery at just three weeks old. Erin’s big VBAC tips are to have birth preferences instead of rigid plans while holding strong to your boundaries, find care that is individualized to your unique circumstances, and lean into positive affirmations.
