Anna Baker is a powerhouse of a person. It's just her nature. So, when the birth of her first went from a home birth plan to a hospital setting to the OR and resulted in a c-section she felt distraught, disconnected, and utterly disempowered.  Anna was, of course, relieved to have a healthy baby but having to spend the first precious hour of motherhood completely isolated in a recovery room was traumatic, to say the least. This is the story of how she emerged from that experience, surrounded herself with supportive women and went on to have two successful Vaginal Births After Cesarean (VBACs) at home. Each of Anna's birth stories have impacted her in important ways and have motivated her teach, connect with and empower women in all sorts of ways. If you're a mom (or know a mom) who's had to toss her birth plan out the window and navigate the intense and complicated emotions that go along with that, this one's for you.Show Notes:Red Ants Pants Foundation (organization through which Anna teaches workshops for women)Redtail Woodworks (Anna's Website)For statewide resources please visit the Linking Infants and Families to Supports athttps://hmhb-lifts.org/
