sleepingbeauty825 · May 2011

I am soooooooo happy and proud and AWing it all over town. This morning I VBACed my 9lb porker, GA 37w1d. I woke up with contractions this morning at 430am, was ready to push by 850am and she arrived at 917am. This was so much the opposite experience from my son, I can't even believe it. Everything went so smoothly, except I needed a episiotomy at the very end. I hope this gives someone out there hope.

Hang in there, ladies!

Congratulations! You picked a beautiful name

You've definitely given me hope. I *really* want a VBAC. No reason I shouldn't be able to and though I'm relaxed about almost everything to do with my pregnancies and DS, this is one thing I get anxious about! FX.
