14 month gap VBAC SUCCESSFUL INDUCTION

What is a vbac? congratulations!! Xx

@Morgan, it's Vaginal Birth After C-section

@Mabel If I ever have another baby, that would be my goal. Unfortunately, I would have to go out of town since my town doesn't do VABC.

So lovely to see both 🥰

Congratulations 🌹🌹How Was The Experience? Did Yoy Have Any Complications ?

Congratulations! This is so reassuring to read thanks for sharing x

Congratulations!! My second is also a vbac baby and they are exactly 14 months apart 💕

It was HARD
My cervix wasn’t favourable to start off with especially when I had never went in Labor with my first it was an elective,
So first of all my cervix was posterior and closed had the balloon induction and they did have to force it in me which was very painful it did fall out within the 24 hours so they was able to pop my waters however it did take four attempts as I was still posterier and that was the most painful thing iv ever ever ever experienced but I didn’t give up cos I was desperate for a vbac, got given two hours to see if I would Labor myself and ofc I did not so they put me on the drip, very quickly got contractions and went to 3cm however I did stall and wasn’t progressing so they suggested a c section but I kept falling asleep and I had a high heart rate and was very dehydrated and the baby wasn’t showing any signs of distress so they let me sleep before making the decision (I had epideral) and thank god they let me rest before making the decision if I wanted

A c section or not because 3 hours later I started the bleed the doctor come in and he says I’m fully dilated and ready to push! 40 mins later he was out! I did have second degree tear and I was offered blood transfusion and was very dehydrated that I had to have 4 drips but was all worth it because I finally got to have the experience of a vaginal birth and the healing is amazing compared to c section recovery.

How old was your little one when you fell pregnant?
I had a c sec 1st pregnancy and fell pregnant 8 months after.. my doctor said for sure another c sec unless it would have been like 4 years apart 🤦🏻‍♀️

Congratulations!! I got my vbac 2 weeks ago with a 15 month old gap! I had a 3rd degree tear but like you said the recovery has been amazing compared to my emergency c section last time 👏🥰 xx

@Kat I've heard this from other people but I was just under 6 months when I found out and they let me go natural xx

hi, can I ask why you choose elective first time round and now vaginal, if you don’t mind! And why you needed the blood transfusion?

5 months xx

my consultant wanted me to as my first was measuring big and iron levels xx

I did the same thing!!! 14 months successfully VBAC then 14 months later again successful VBAC and then one more haha almost 2 yrs later.

I had a VBA2C definitely worth it will try vaginal w my 4th also ❤️ best and easiest recovery ❤️‍🩹

Aww congratulations!! This is so lovely to read, I’m hoping for a VBAC and will be 15 months between mine ☺️x

This is fantastic very happy for you, congratulations! I'm so desperate for a natural delivery(VBAC) but I've just been told by consultant that I will need another c section, I've had 2 already. I'm not sure what to do.

my consultant only gave me the option for a c section ! So I asked for a different consultant and rang up the hospital I was going to give birth in and they was supportive honestly it was so stressful getting someone to agree to let me have a vbac honestly but request a different consultant you can do it best thing I did

Wow well done for sticking with it . 👏 glad you got another opinion. I might try get a doula to help support me.

That’s amazing to hear. I am pregnant with second baby and I have emergency c section for my first: my little one is 17 months right now and I am 5 and a half months pregnant. Really hoping with vbac can’t do another ceserian
