Hello Ladies! I've posted here before, but had to open a new account since thebump wouldn't let me edit any of my preferences. I went off BC shortly after visiting with an OB, since she gave me the go ahead to try this summer. I stopped mid-march and we just found out today that we are expecting. We are a bit surprised. I was shaking, crying, and felt so happy. This came at a perfect time since it was just this week that I started feeling at peace with my CS. I am ready! Any advice for a brand-new VBACer?
Re: and the VBAC journey begins
Congratulations! I am right there with you!
Congrats!! I hope to be right behind you. My first steps would be/will be the following.
- arm yourself with as much research as possible. join ICAN and use their wealth of resources.
- don't take anything your provider says at face value. really ask the hard questions and try to read between the lines when they answer.
- consider getting a doula
