I'm going for a VBAC in September, or hoping to anyway! Also hoping to do hypnobirthing so please no horror stories if possible, want to keep my positive mindset, positive birth stories very welcome! :)
Anyway, I had my appointment with birth consultant and they mentioned that you should go into the hospital as soon as you're having contractions regularly even if they are ten minutes apart! Also mentioned that they won't let you labour much more than 24 hours or push for more than 1, does this mean I have to do my entire labour in hospital or can I have the beginning at home? I had a 52 hour labour (from first contraction which was mild) to c section with my son so 24 hours wouldn't get me far!!
I'm hoping they count 24 hours from when you start properly surging like 3 in 10? Help! :)
