Thank you ladies for all of your help over the last 40 weeks.
DS was born on January 4 unmedicated, vacuum assisted VBAC!
It was magical. The recovery has been awesome. Although i had a third degree tear...that is a synch compared to a section.
The birth was a very short bc i labored a long time at home, but dS did get stuck under the pubic bone--hence the need for the vaccum. He was a big boy at 8lbs 12oz and does have a clavicle fracture but is doing wonderfully. We were home for the hospital in 36 hrs and on cruise control now with the routine and breast feeding.
Thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your help. Encouraging me to switch obs to a supportive one was the best decision i could have made.
