28. From Unplanned to Elective: Nicole’s Journey Through Three Unique Births (feat Nicole Scheitlin)
In this episode of The Vibrantly You® Podcast, Meg and Caitlin sit down with Nicole Scheitlin— personal trainer, pre/postnatal fitness specialist, and founder of Strong Mama Wellness — to talk through her three very different birth experiences.
From navigating an unplanned C-section after “failure to progress,” to weighing the emotional and physical pros and cons of a VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) vs. a repeat C-section, to ultimately choosing an elective C-section for her third — Nicole opens up about the lessons, challenges, and mindset shifts that shaped each decision.
This honest and empowering conversation is for any mom who’s wrestled with expectations, birth outcomes, or the pressure to get it “right.”
Whether you’re preparing for your first birth or healing from your third, you’ll leave this episode feeling more informed, supported, and seen.
