Vba2c

[lumpybumpymummy]

Is anyone having a vba2c i'm having one in june

or know anyone who has?

dd was emergency csection at 9cms
ds was planned section

dd is 2.5yrs
ds is 9months

Me!
I'm having one in April.

DD was an em cs under GA, 7years ago, DS was an el cs 3 years ago yesterday!

VictorianSqualor on the due in April thread has loads of info, as do th Doula bunch (lulu, JoFeb, Mars, HertsinEssex etc) if you can find them

See- told you

...

Good luck in a way i can't wait just hope it all goes well my body done great till 9cms but she had a big head and was back to back and just got stuck

forgot to add dd was under ga to and it sucked big time was awful dd was under spinal but i hated every second of the section itself

I tried one, it ended up another section, but it was an easy section and I'm glad I tried (elective ds2 had breathing problems- think the labour helped ds3).

interesting. I am thinking about it too. not sure at present which way I'll go. had an em section with severe pre-eclampsia, then another em section at 9cm after failure to progress. now aged 5 and 3. due in july, so a long time to decide yet.

not sure I want to gear myself up to try again for a vaginal del, only to fail, again. but having another section means not being able to drive for 4 weeks etc. I did recover quite quickly after my second section though, and it would be a lot easier planning childcare etc. I'm also not planning to have anymore after this.

decisions decisions!!

theres alot of info on netmums coffee house which is helpful

I'd really recomend Michel Odents book on Caesarians. It was that book that made me give it a go, and also that book that made me insist on early diversion to c-section. He distinguishes between emergency, elective and what he calls 'in labour sections'.

As well as here on MN you will also gets of support here too! We have lots of VBA2Cers there as well as a VBA3Cer. Currently we have a VBA2Cer who was 40 weeks on Boxing day so she will be birthing anytime in the next two weeks! Am checking constantly for a BA....

There is this thread on here for VBACers which has helped me tremendously.
Have you seen your consultant and got the go-ahead etc yet?
I was so concerned about getting the ok from mine I couldn't believe it when she didn't argue! (My cons for my 2nd cs was an arse and told me I wasn't allowed a VBAC )
Only problem I have now is I've been transferred to a new cons. as there is something wrong with the way my placenta is working or something, I see him next week so am gearing up for the fight again!

yes mine agreed i dont want to go into a huge debate on here but by law they can force you to have a csection if you want a vba2c you can have one yes they might argue with you but its not something thats impossible i think some hospitals are just to lazy to want to keep an eye on you not saying all hospital forget the term allowed what they going to do force you to sign the csection papers tell them your having one make sure your loaded with infomation id help that i had my midwife behide but if not i would still of fighted them for it

opps just read you already got agreed on it sorry not with it today got headache,cold,chest infection .and still puking for endland i could win awards for lol

I'm planning my vba2c for March! I'm actually rather excited about it! I know it might not go according to plan, but I'm doing everything I can to try and help matters - good posture, seeing osteopath, sitting on ball, sleeping with pillow between knees, etc, etc.

Our friend's just had a vba2c - all's well with Mum and Boxing Day baby!

Very many Congratulations to Dottydot's friend!!!!!!! Excellent news!!!!

Yay!
