Mama's who had a VBAC after one c-section I have questions!

How long did you push for your VBAC?

Did your scar change the sensation /pain levels of your contractions?

What gestation did you go into labor with your c-section vs your vbac?

And only semi related to c-section, if you were induced with your first and not with your VBAC, how did the contractions differ?

Also if you got to 10 CM and didn't push before your c-section at all let me know because I'm extra interested in hearing from you since that was my experience!

I pushed for 1 hour and 28 minutes for my first VBAC 😅 she was back to back 🙈 no issues with scar or anything other than a bit of burning in the scar area as baby came out! Can’t help with the others though as my c section was called when I was 3cm and I was induced with both my section and all my VBACs 🫠 I’ve had three now 🫶🏻

30 min push
Scar didn’t have any impact on pregnancy or contractions got pregnant 10 months pp
Went into labor from water breaking for c section at 39+2 and had him same day. Went into labor at 39+1 with contractions starting was in labor for 32.5 hours. Had her also 39+2

I didn’t get to 10 I got 7 and it took forever to get there along with lots of other reasons for my c section.

With my VBAC, I pushed 3 times & she was out. I got the epidural so i didn’t feel anything. No scar pain either. I had an emergency c section at 37 weeks in 2023. I was 10 cm dilated with my water intact. My water never breaks so I don’t know how that feels lol & when I was 10 cm, it was painful but I was still walking & talking. & with my VBAC, the contractions hurt as soon as they broke my water lol but that’s just my pain tolerance

For those who have had two c sections

Hi ladies, I was wondering how recovery was after having two c sections?
Iv had one and planning another. First recovery was fine but wondered how second one would be xx

Welcome October Twins

We did it! Hit 37 weeks on the nose for our October twin boys delivered via c section.

For any mamas at Heartlands in Birmingham - BRING YOUR OWN BUTTER! The trust has removed butter and replaced it with margarine, thankfully I was pre warned 🤣

Multiple c-section mums…

When you had your second c-section, did they cut over the old scar or make a new incision?
