1. Are you definitely having a c-section, considering one, or more likely than average to need one? If already scheduled, when are you having it?
I have a c section scheduled for March 5(39 weeks). I will try to VBAC if I go into labor before my c section
2. Why are you having or possibly having a c-section?
This will be a repeat for me plus I have a partial placental abruption.
3. Have you had a c-section before? If so, when and what were the circumstances? Any details you are willing to share about your past experience/birth story would be great. If you've had both a c-section and a vaginal birth feel free to compare your experience with the two. If you had a vaginal birth and were later told your next should be delivered by c-section, what was the reason?
My first child was delivered vaginally at 41 weeks- 6lbs. My second child was born at 40 weeks via c section after attempting labor and pushing-8 lbs. He was posterior and I wasn’t able to push him out.
4. How do you feel about having or potentially having a c-section?
I am actually nervous even though I’ve had a c section before. My first section was fast, I was tired and ready for everything to be done. Now I will have to go to the hospital and wait and then be taken back.

Also, you may want to head over to the knot to change your user name into something more recognizable/tag-able, log out, then log back in here, and then go introduce yourself on the intro thread at the top of the board with your new name.
