I had a c-section 5 years ago 09/09/2015 with my first son. I am due with my second son 11/11/2020. I'm planning on a vbac but my Dr. wanted to schedule a c-section one week after my due date. I'm searching for as much information as possible since I don't feel like I've received a lot of information or support. I pray for a successful natural delivery! UPDATE: IT WAS A SUCCESSFUL VBAC! 🙏❤

So I told my self if they can do a t so can I 🙂 I also had a doula that Sarah recommended me. She is amazing my doula help me stand my ground. So can my due date at 39 weeks for my schedule c section and I don’t not show up I waited until I was 40 weeks oh I was so wasn’t having labor pains and I did try castor oil help me as well I started having contractions there’s more to the story.

Classy Cassy that’s good congrats and yes god is all the time. Yes I was 40weeks when I went in to labor . He call me and told me to come in I was having contractions 10 to 15 minutes apart and I went to the doctor office and all he did was look that me and yea you’re contracting go straight to the hospital and contract their it’s safer for you cuz I didn’t have two c section. I didn’t go straight to the hospital I went home to grab my hospital bag call my husband and my doula I’m going in to labor meet me at the hospital. I stayed there over night my contractions started getting Little closer 6 to 7 mins apart. 3 to 5 it was weird contractions. The next which was December 15 on a Saturday afternoon I had my baby girl. It was a great experience oh yes I had epidural I couldn’t take the pain lol it was too much. Oh it felt like I had to poop the on time and it started getting worse I told my doula I feel like I’m have to poop really bad so she went to go get the nurse and nurse check me I was 10 cm dilated after she checked me I felt like a had to push and doctor came in and started pushing. So I wish the best of luck to you and your baby and family ❤️

KoalaEdits Hiya. Congrats on ur successful vba2c. What was the gap of ur first & second c-s? My first was June 2010. And my second Aug 2017. And now I’m pregnant with my 3rd baby (33 weeks gone), my edd is mid June. I can’t really say I’m nervous bcos I’m choosing not to fear & trust completely in God. I must say I’m far more informed than ever & feeling confident. However, I’m certainly open to further information, guidances & tips...
@lisabrown4u 5 жыл бұрын
KoalaEdits And oh yes, I’m certainly hoping for a vbac & not a third c-s... I came really close on my last pregnancy to having a vaginal birth but lying down @ the hospital for too long caused the baby to go back due to my cervix swelling as a result of closing my legs cos I was in so much pain, no drugs. When I initially arrived @ the hospital, I was checked & was confirmed @ 6cm dilated. But I was made to lie down as they didn’t have mobile monitors that could allow u to move around yet know how the baby is doing. Anyway, next thing I know, they tell me I’m 3cm dilated - my husband didn’t understand it. Before I knew it an epidural & a caesarean took place. I was so mad at myself for not standing my ground, they literally couldn’t wait to open me up...

I had a C-section 16 years ago, and my doctor told me that I HAD TO have another one C-section again (this was assumed on the very first visit and without an ultrasound). After watching some of your videos and becoming a little more knowledgeable about giving birth, I am now looking at having a VBAC. I was also facing a possible C-section a month later due to a low lying placenta, which is now higher! Watching your videos and taking your advice has reduced my stress and anxiety ENORMOUSLY! My baby is currently breached, so I'll be watching your videos to get her into the right position. I am older and not in great shape, so I'll be taking notes on the best strengthening exercises to make labor a little less complicated. I thank you so much for doing what you're doing. A shout out to all of my Covid Moms! Stay strong and advocate for yourself and your babies! 💕

Doctors were recommending a repeat c section but every pregnancy is different, and I had a successful VBAC 5 days ago. I said no to induction after my water broke at 38 weeks and I was not in a labor or no contraction. I told them no Pitocin at all. No augmentation or induction. Let’s wait and see. They finally gave me some time to see if things go spontaneous. And after bouncing in a birth ball for some time, I was having regular contractions. So I didn’t need no help to start the labor.

@@acarord I am definitely anxious, especially since tomorrow is my due date. I have been reading and realized that I just need to relax and let things take their course because worrying is just going to make things harder. I also thought about how oxytocin is the hormone that helps labor start and you release more of it when you are happy and not stressed. So I bought some foods that help increase oxytocin, like dark chocolate almonds, bananas, eggs, and chicken. I'm actually feeling pretty good other than the fact that I hate waiting.

I know this is an old comment, but I read it about a month ago and its stayed with me so I've come back. I decided to go for a vbac 8 months ago, 4 years after the emergency ceasar. I didn't have a uterine rupture, but felt more or less ignored because I couldn't managed to get passed 3 cms. When our daughter's HR began to drop, all of the sudden a room 'became available', they ruptured my membranes and gave me 3 hours to get her out. Her HR was dropping down to 40 bpm. It was terrifying. When she was born she hit the HIE trigger and after they worked on her for 20-30 mins she was carted off to the NICU and I was left alone in the delivery room (I told my husband not to let her out of his sight). I don't know if I'll ever really get over that experience to be honest. She seems fine, but I've found that I've constantly been second-guessing everything I thought I knew, like somehow I broke her. Every milestone she meets I'm grateful, but I'm also anxiously awaiting the next to see if she'll continue to be okay. I'm so sorry that happened to your wife and yourself and hope you are well.

@@justinboyens6082 oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. Did they scan him after he was born? They never scanned our daughter, they just flagged her based off of things like her umbilical chord acid/base test - like a checklist of things. When I asked if she actually had encephalopathy they couldn't give me a yes or no, they just told me they needed to watch her for 6 hours for seizures (she didn't seize). I guess I'll be worrying a while longer yet...

Anyway ...number 6 was a vbac and it was a bit worrisome bc it was all new. My doc stayed at hospital for while labor. His heart rate had dropped and they had everything prepped in case but everything went well and we delivered naturally. He was a good sized 7 lbs 11 oz. 20 in. Yes have a bikini cut( side to side) I think I was told if it's vertical inside and out u can't do a vbac.

I had a c-section under general anesthesia (due to ITP, which was undiscovered until I was in the hospital and in labor!) with my first baby, and a successful VBAC with baby #2. I'm hoping for another VBAC with baby #3 (due in June). Looking forward to more info on how to prepare for a successful VBAC! Sarah - you are glowing, funny, and informative as usual!!!

I've had 1 CSection 6 years ago, and I'm going to try a VBAC soon hopefully in 1 week. My baby is slightly big, he is between 2.9-3.1 kg at 35wks 2 days. So I'm trying to induce labor now within 36weeks to 37 weeks of pregnancy, hopefully on 37 weeks exactly. So I've been having cramping since 35wks 6days so hopefully I will be successful

If you're in the DMV area, "West End Midwifery" located in "Henrico Doctors Hospital" specialize in VBACs and are advocates for it. They've been doing it since before it was even called a VBAC. They have Doctors, Midwives, and Doulas all on board and I've seen many success stories through their practice. (I've posted this on part 2 as well, I'm not a sponsor and my comment is not fake lol)

This video was so needed for me. I am 19 weeks pregnant with my second baby. My first was a cesarean birth due to prolapsed cord. At 36 weeks it was discovered that my daughter was breech with her foot being felt when I was checked for dilation. At 37 weeks I went in for an ultrasound to see if she had flipped in this process my doctor saw that the cord was prolapsed and I was rushed into the OR for an emergency c-section. I want so badly to have a VBAC this time around, but I am definitely still tramatized by the events of my c-section and the aftermath of my daughter's birth which is unrelated to my emergency c-section.

I had a vaginal birth with my first 2007 followed by an emergency c-section in 2009. Reason for the emergency was the baby was stuck, as in the doctor tried using forceps to get baby out and she wouldn't budge(this cause nerve damage in my baby's face). I was never really told the reason for this.

I would love and be forever grateful if you'd do a video about reasons why a labour doesn't progress. For example, my water broke and i didn't have any contractions, so they started inducing me but i was only 2 cm dilated after 17 hours. Even if i was in excruciating pain and the contractions were coming one after another and i barely had time to catch a breath in between, the baby was not coming down and i didn't dilate, so i ended up having a c-section. Nobody ever explained to me why this happened and i always believed that my body is probably not able to deliver a baby. It's been 11 years and that fear stopped me from having another baby, because recovery after c-section was really hard.

Only 1%. So many doctors make it seem like uterine rupture is a major possibility, but it’s actually a fairly low risk.

@kutie1016 5 жыл бұрын
It is a fairly low risk but I understand why doctors wouldn't want to take it. Out of 10,000 VBACs 100 will statistically end up having a ruptured uterus. That is a life threatening complication. Everyone thinks "that won't happen to me" but the fact is it's happened to women and they suffered. Personally I'm team no babies but I find this information interesting. I was watching a vid about a women who's uterus ruptured and her bladder was smashed and cut. She almost died and I really felt for her giving her experience to the public.
@mymak-jq1hy 5 жыл бұрын
kutie 101 It’s a risk vs benefit. Having a c section sucks. I’d take the risk so long as I give myself 24 months or so to heal up. Ultimately it’s my (informed) risk to take.

I waited until 41 weeks and then got 2nd csec. Cervix was softened but not opened yet and no labor pains at all. My dr said we cant go for manual induction like membrane sweep etc if the cervix is not open. During the csec dr said that baby had already passed meconium and she told that i wasnt in labor at all. Can you plz tell if there was any way for manual induction and if i could have waited more for labor pains?

@Chispiitah21 4 жыл бұрын
If the baby passed meconium they're supposed to make an emergency csection because that means baby is under stress for any reason. As you know, the baby aspirates amniotic fluid, so if meconium is present, it can lead to baby getting MAS (Meconium Aspiration Syndrome) which is lungs inflammation and might develop breathing problems after birth.

I have a question. February this year 2021 I had a c section. unplanned and they were expecting 10 pounds boy, I had hypertension, and induction at 39w1d failed. So they offered a c section and I reluctantly agreed. They told me that the incision they made tore from one end all the way down to the cervix when they started to push him through. OBGYN said if that was performed on her and that happened, she wouldn't labor on it but I can discuss it with the provider later when I am pregnant again. How bad does that sound medically to you? Not like I am going to do anything without consulting a doctor next time I get pregnant and not planning to labor at home anymore, unfortunately. But do you think I have a chance at all with natural labor? and if yes how many years do I have to wait till that will be considered safe?

During the surgery the surgeon accidentally made a laceration on my uterus and they told me we might have to do a c-section because of risk of ruptured uterus. Im nervous can you tell me what you think about my situation?

Hey Sarah! Thanks for your excellent education! I have not seen many videos on VBAC In advanced maternal age. I’m 36 and trying for a VBAC, due in a couple weeks and man, my birth team unfortunately is not very supportive as my time with these docs has continued. It’s become more clear. Now, with covid, my doula cannot be with me in the hospital. So, my true question is that other than me having no complications so far, and healthy pregnancy and baby- what is the risk of my placenta dying if I don’t go into labor by my due date?

This pregnancy everything looks healthy baby is in right position, placenta is high and away from scar tissue do you think I have a chance of going natural if I hold off at home? They said only if I go into labor early and I'm dialated would that even be an option? Please help
