A Melbourne wellness influencer died from a treatable complication after giving birth at home without any trained medical staff, an inquest heard this week. Stacey Warnecke, 30, was found lying on the floor of her home in an altered state of consciousness beside a large blood clot hours before her death in September.

She had given birth to her son Axel at home without any trained medical professionals present. The inquest, which began on Monday, heard details of the circumstances. The exact cause of death was listed as a treatable complication related to childbirth.

The case has reignited debates about the safety of home births and the role of influencers in promoting unorthodox health practices. Warnecke was known online as a wellness advocate. No further details about her online presence were provided during the inquest.

The inquest is expected to continue.
