VBAC check-in

I did a quick search and didn't see a thread devoted to those attempting VBACs. The actual VBAC board is rather dead.

I had to have an emergency-c with DS1 because he had the cord on his shoulder. 

He wasn't big so I'm hoping this time I can do it. I chose my practice because they have a high VBAC success rate but really I just want to at least go into labor naturally rather than having a RCS. I'll have a doula but this week I had to fill out the hospital's consent form which mentioned many positive things but of course all the scary risks. I'm starting to lose a bit of my gumption so I wanted to see who else was out there!

Re: VBAC check-in

  • I'm hoping to attempt one. DS was breech, so he was a csection birth. If this little one isn't breech (which, honestly so far is looking doubtful because breech and transverse are his favorite) then I'll try for a vbac. Honestly, there are risks on both sides that can be frightening.

    Good luck with yours when the time comes!
