Description

In this week’s episode, Aneeka shares the contrasting stories of how she birthed her two boys — one born via planned C-section in the UK, the other a powerful VBAC in Dubai.

She opens up about:
— The challenges of early pregnancy, low iron, and cultural expectations— Feeling empowered through hypnobirthing and research— Navigating a breech baby and planned C-section— Fighting for her VBAC birth plan despite pressure from medical staff— How each birth — and each baby — brought something totally different

From a movie-like waters-breaking moment to standing her ground in labour, Aneeka’s story is packed with raw honesty and resilience. Tune in for a powerful reminder that you are allowed to advocate for the birth you want.
