Why is this viggo person copying and pasting her post about a failed vbac as a response to almost every post? It is really disturbing. Has anyone else noticed? I had a successful VBAC and think it is soooo worth it. There is a very small chance of a rupture.
I think it is troll. Clearly the made the account just to post what they are saying. Plus she is using incorrect statistics. I don't want to see people scared because of what she is saying. As we all know, rcs have their own dangers.
And if the story is true, it sucks if the ob wasn't there, but that isn't always going to be the case. I personally had the on call ob, and e hospitalist there and in and it the entire time.
I think it should be taken off. I don't want anyone to be scared either. Obviously, bad things happen, VBAC or not. A RCS carries it's own set of risks as PP said. Please don't let this person discourage your dreams of a vaginal birth. It can be done! I had a CS for failure to progress and had a beautiful baby girl in April, I even had an epidural! Good luck to all of you!
I've flagged them all as SPAM. XPing the same thing over and over is spam, regardless of the message. But maybe the bump gods will disagree and bannate me.

I don't know what it is worse - to think that her story is true or to think there is some sicko out there that would make up such a story.

I think her story could be true (though her statistics are off). If you type in the name and birthdate of the baby into a search engine, you will find that there is a baby who was born and died on that date.

Ugh, I really did not know what to do with this as a mod and didn't get any guidance from the bump. Her story very well may be true and even if it's not, it's true for someone out there. VBAC does have a small but real risk of that happening. I don't want to be like other boards I've heard about that remove any post that doesn't promote a certain agenda. I feel bad about taking her posts down because I think she was really just a grieving mom. But OTOH she did basically spam the board.

Iris- I definitely can see how conflicted this decision must be for you. She is certainly welcome to start a thread and tell us her story. But to copy and paste it into every other thread must be against terms of use.
