    Scared To Get Pregnant Again After C-Section?

    ✨I’ve created a free scar connection guide below and if you want to continue with a gentle daily practice, you’ll also find my Reconnection Oil linked there: https://www.divinajohnson.com/scarguide Are you scared to have another baby after a traumatic C-section? You’re not alone. After my first traumatic C-section, I was convinced I never wanted another child. The fear, shock, anxiety, difficult recovery and everything I experienced during birth made the thought of doing it again feel impossible. In this video, I share my personal story of having 3 C-sections in 5 years, what happened during my second pregnancy, why unprocessed birth trauma showed up again during my planned C-section, and what I wish I had done differently before becoming pregnant again. We talk about: ✨ Fear of having another baby after birth trauma ✨ Pregnancy after a traumatic C-section ✨ Why unprocessed emotions can show up during pregnancy, birth and postpartum ✨ VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Caesarean) options ✨ Birth preparation and hypnobirthing ✨ How to feel more confident about future pregnancies ✨ Emotional healing after C-section ✨ C-section recovery and nervous system healing If you’re wondering whether you’ll ever feel ready for another baby, I want you to know that healing is possible. You do not have to carry fear from one birth into the next. This is The C-Section Healing Space, where we talk about the emotional, physical, energetic and spiritual side of C-section recovery. ✨ Purchase Your Reconnection Ritual Oil Today Please like, comment and subscribe to help more C-section mums find this space.

    Why You Froze During Birth (Freeze & Fawn)

    ✨ Purchase Your Reconnection Ritual Oil Today https://www.divinajohnson.com/product-page/reconnection-body-oil Did you freeze during your labour or C-section and later wonder: “Why didn’t I say no?” “Why didn’t I advocate for myself?” “Why did I just go along with it?” In this episode of The C-Section Healing Space, I talk about freeze and fawn trauma responses during birth and how your nervous system may have been trying to protect you. After having 3 C-sections in 5 years, including a traumatic epidural experience where I truly thought I was dying, I now understand that what happened in the birth room was not a personality flaw, it was a learned survival response.

    ✨ Purchase Your Reconnection Ritual Oil Today https://www.divinajohnson.com/product-page/reconnection-body-oil “Was my C-section traumatic?” This is one of the most common questions women ask after birth, especially when they feel like they “should be fine” because somebody else had it worse.
