I'm so sorry ❤ I pray that if it is medically necessary that the Lord would give you peace. I'm now pregnant with #4 and may have to have a c section.

Oh that's exciting! Congratulations! We are doing very well. Very busy but doing great. You'll have to let me know how things go! Good luck :)

How did it go?

I hope it goes well for you! I'll be praying it does :)

You're so welcome! Thank you for watching! Good luck on your VBAC.

Hello! Yes it was an amazing success! Hoping for another one as we just found out another blessing is on the way 😍

Congrats on your pregnancy! The main concern with GD and a VBAC is if your blood sugar isn't controlled then the baby could get bigger which could cause more pressure on the uterine scar. Being thin or not doesn't really matter for GD. My OB said as long as my blood sugar is controlled through diet then she will treat me like she would any other pregnant person. Let me know how the test goes!! They'll be checking me soon for baby #3 but I know I have it again.

Thank you! The Lord has certainly blessed us!

None at all. I've now had 3 successful VBACs and never noticed the scar at all.

How you did ,any update pls ❤

Thank you!

Haha thank you!

They turned me on my side and gave me oxygen.

between my c section and the first VBAC was about 18 months. My last VBAC I was 4 month PP from my 3rd VBAC.

My doctor never said anything about scar thickness. Remember that you can always get a second opinion.

Tell something about your VBac???

Did you end up going through with Vbac !? If so what was the scar thickness !?

It depends on your OB. I believe ACOG recommends a minimum of 9 months and preferably 18 months. I got pregnant with my last baby when 4 months post partum and was still able to VBAC. I would talk to your physician

last I looked ACOG recommends you wait 18 months but you should discuss that with your physician. Most OBs will not do a VBAC after 2 csections.

Before this one I was about 2.5 years PP. My son after this I was almost 2 years PP and my last kiddo I was 13 months PP

I think the biggest thing is to be your own advocate. If you and baby are not in distress then you should be fine to keep laboring. Don't let them pressure you into an unnecessary c section. On the other hand, if it becomes necessary it's totally ok to have another c section! If you have any questions or concerns I'm happy to answer what I can :)

@@TheBonneyBunch thanks a lot. I'm 30 weeks pregnant and would totally love to pick your brain. I was induced with my first as I was over due at 41 weeks and baby was posterior and did not engage. So this time I'm trying to learn how to optimally position baby for birth. Any advice on the same would be very helpful.

@@shivanisharma4983 have you heard of spinning babies? I never had this particular issue but I know of a lot of people that did and spinning babies helped a lot with getting baby in the correct position.

@@TheBonneyBunch yes! I'm following them diligently and trying to stay top of all their advice. Which week did your baby engage or drop? Did you do certain activities or exercises to help the same? Thanks again.

@@shivanisharma4983 she didn't drop until fairly close to delivery and didn't actually engage until I was in labor. I bounced on an exercise ball and did squats but that's pretty much it.

That's really between your and your doctor but most OB's will not do a vaginal delivery after multiple c sections. You may be able to find someone who will if you are comfortable with the risks but it might take some shopping around for a doctor that is willing.

I don't know. Since that is in my uterus I'm not sure how they would determine that.

@@TheBonneyBunch through ultrasound.

@@BipinKumar-gb2ew if they checked they didn't say anything to me about it so I don't know, sorry.

It's a pretty great day!

That's really something you should discuss with your OB. I don't know your medical history or why you had a c section previously. If there's nothing preventing you from having a vaginal delivery then I would try.

@@TheBonneyBunch Thankx ... But how much gap u had between ur c section and vbac ??? I just want to know how much gap is possible or required for vbac ???

Between my c section and next pregnancy was about 1.5 years. My son was 2.5 when my daughter was born. ACOG recommends at least 9 months between pregnancies for a VBAC. I am currently pregnant with my 4th after only 6 months and my OB is still willing to let me try.

@@TheBonneyBunch I'm curious how old you are. I just had a c section due to being failure to progress. My water broke before being dilated. I'm going to be 37 very soon and read that there are risk being over 35 and haven't see too many videos of ladies over 35.

@@Arose2011 I am 30 now. I was 28 when I had my daughter. All pregnancies in women over 35 are considered higher risk though, regardless of previous deliveries. I'm not sure I would let that be too big of a factor in my delivery unless there are other things going on but age alone shouldn't detour you from having a VBAC.

My oldest was 2.5 when I had her. Between her and my 3rd was about 21 months and now I am pregnant with my 4th and my 3rd will be around 13 months old when my 4th is born and will hopefully be another VBAC.

So that means u got pregnant a year n one month

I had gestational diabetes with all of mine. I have now had 3 VBACS. Are you able to control yours with diet?

@@TheBonneyBunch Yes i am able to control it with a diet If that doc tells me i cant get a Vbac then i will be ver upset

@@biancaopperman4352 you can tell them no if they try to push you to do a c section. You don't have to do what they say :) especially if they don't have a good medical reason for it. "You have gestational diabetes" is not a valid reason for a c section. I would suggest you do your own research and start having a conversation with your OB now. That way if you need to find a new OB that will support you in your VBAC then you will have time to do that

@@TheBonneyBunch thank you very much i am from Northern Cape

@@biancaopperman4352 are you going through the state or private

Thank you she has so much hair now!

I never had an issue with my placenta or the position.

@@TheBonneyBunch yes I also don’t have I have anterior what was yours?

@@cookwithin5minutes398 I don't remember haha. This was 4.5 years ago.

@@TheBonneyBunch haha can you pls see your anomaly scan and tell me 😀

@@cookwithin5minutes398 I don't have access to my anatomy scan but the position of my placenta was never an issue.

I hope you were able to have the birth you wanted or make peace with it if things went differently

All of them 😆 I don't remember all of their names but flying cowgirl, running man or something like that, feet together and knees out, all 4s, sitting as up right as possible. I'm sure there were more. I also did a lot of stretching to open my pelvis

My son was 2.5 when my daughter was born.

Thanks sister. Your first baby and second baby interval is 2 years

Thank you!

@@TheBonneyBunch hi Mam, what was the gap between your both deliveries c-section and VBAC?

about 2.5 years.
