Congratulations on the new addition! I had a VBAC a little less than two weeks ago and overall, it was a positive experience. I will say that the postpartum recovery is definitely different from a c-section. There is definitely more postpartum bleeding and lots of (mild) aches and pains associated with both the vagina and pelvis. Overall though, I prefer this over my c-section recovery. I hope that you have the birth that you desire :)
I loved my vbac. It was great. I was worried about my vagina too. It was totally fine after. I rather have had some vaginal healing the having to deal with a c section again
Thank you everyone for sharing your experiences
I was sooooooo close to having a vbac after my c section, i got to 7cm ended up in labour ward BUT they couldnt find baby to monitor so ended up in theatre. Otherwise if no complications baby would have been out within an hour 😩. My recovery is proving very difficult as im 4 weeks pp and me and baby both had an infection, so ive been on oral antibiotics 3 times and have to use antibiotic cream. If you fo end up having a section take it easy after, its going to be hard but get help
