54: Pelvic floor exercise after c-section and to prepare for VBAC with Dr. Jessica London, PT, DPT, PCES

In today's episode I dive deep into pelvic floor PT with Dr. Jessica London, PT, DPT, PCES. I also hear a bit about her birth stories (unplanned c-section and HBAC).

Here’s what you can expect:

• How Jessica's first birth experience shaped the decision for a second homebirth, and the mental preparation involved.
• Differences in preparing for a VBAC attempt and how that preparation evolved from the first to the second homebirth.
• Insights from a pelvic floor therapist’s perspective on the unique experiences of both c-section and vaginal births.
• How postpartum recovery differs between c-section and vaginal births, and what it means for recovery and birth prep from a professional standpoint.
