Had a hospital VBAC water birth!

ryemo · May 2011

I will post my birth story when I did a second to write it. Short version, I went into labor early Friday. Despite all my efforts to change her position, like DD1 she was ROP. That and a small pelvis made for a hard, long labor. My MW just got an aqua doula at the hospital. I pushed in the tub for only an hour and she came out OP. So I did it in the same or worse circumstances as my CS. It was amazing! Recovery has been a breeze despite a bad tear. We bonded much quicker than I did with DD1 and she is a nursing champ! I feel clear and excited.
