Yay! I got my VBAC (just about!)

[Holymoly321]

For all mums out there thinking about VBAC, I would just like to say that I had one last week and although I ended up with an epidural and ventouse delivery, it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life and my recovery level now in comparison to how I was a week after my elec section is unbelievable! I am so glad I fought to get what I wanted and would advise anyone else who feels the same to stick to their guns. The registrar who delivered my son told me he was proud that I had stood my ground and got (nearly) the delivery that I wanted and believed I would be able to achieve.

congratulations.... really good to hear that...so glad it was a positive experience. x

Oh wow that's brilliant! Well done you and it sounds like it was definately worth it.

Huge congrats xxx

Good for yousmiling I had VBAC 11 days ago & although I had to have forceps/epi as DD was at an odd angle I'm still really pleased too.
I can't believe the difference either, I was out driving today , tbh could have done it last week but had no real need to so just waited till I was really ready. Still sore down below but nothing compared to post cs pain & I had a pretty easy recovery from my cs as well.
Feel I can enjoy my LO much more as I'm not gingerly moving about and having to ask DH to lift everything etc and I hiked my 6 year old over a massive puddle this morning, she's have had to wade through it if things had been different, lttle things like that have made it so much easier.
Congrats again.

Fantastic news Smiling!!! Enjoy your babymoon.
