Natural Vbac #2

shunt1983

So I had a girl another sucessful natural birth vbac as well.  On monday had my 37 week appt I was4.5 90% doc ordered sonagram sent me L&D to be watched 2 hours later at first check I was 5.5 contracting but not really feeling them.  they were 5 min aprt.  Then hour later near a 7.  They admitted me but if I fizzled out meaning stopped contracting, they would send me home.  Now on call OB would deliver, he warned of the risks of a vbac.   I could do a csection etc.  I said no.  So got my antibiotics Im GBS  +.  He wouldnt let me walk around.  I was annoyed.  Nurses and dr were shocked, I was still laughing walking Contraction started to get stronger but nothing I couldnt manage still talking in between.  After 3.5 I was 8, had been there for awhile had my water broken, I knew painwould start 10 min later I was dying 30 min, vomitting for last 15. I was ready to push they hadto setup.  Then I pushed her out in 4 contractions.  She decelerated when crowning and I needed oxygen bw contractions.  But worth it last push scary because she needed to get out now. Shes perfect.
