I have been hoping for VBAC all along and after getting the GD news yesterday, I have to admit that my optimism has taken a hit. I haven't spoken with my doctor since I got my results but thus far he has been very supportive about this VBAC. He is a very pro-VBAC doctor. I'm just hoping as long as I can control the GD well, we'll be able to go forward
Care to share experiences?
Re: GD and VBAC. Did your doctor change his opinion?
My doc is still pro-VBAC, so long as this baby isn't as large!! (DS was 9lb 11oz) He told me the only problems are he doesn't want me to go over my due date b/c of the GD, and I can't be induced for a VBAC.
I'm still hopeful b/c I had DS 8 days early after going into labor, then doing the section. (I had one scheduled for 3 days later!)
However, my sugar was totally under control with DS and he was still big. Could just be genetics! UGH! HTH!
