Right....
after DS (emcs) - I had a debrief with a midwife, and I've also recently seen the supervisor of midwives to discuss plans for this birth - I've decided on ELCS and it's scheduled for two weeks time.
Anyway - I ummed and ahhed quite a bit about whether to go for VBAC as both of the midwives said that my labour notes suggested DS was back to back, common problem in first labour, cause of most of the problems I had delivering, unlikely to happen again yadda yadda. i.e. it was pretty much down to DS's position and nothing to do with my anatomy or whatever.
I came across my discharge notes this morning and it said that DS's presentation during the c-section was 'normal - OA' - correct me if I'm wrong but that means occipital anterior - so he wasn't back to back at all, and they should have known this had they read my notes.
Am now feeling mightily relieved at my decision to go for ELCS as it now appears DS's position may not have been a contributing factor at all!
Can someone confirm that's what OA means? And would it be possible for DS to have suddenly turned prior to section?
