Hi all!

I'm getting closer & closer to VBAC #2!  I'm excited...and nervous too.  Everything went so well with the first VBAC...I'm hoping for the same this time.  I've heard the second VBAC has a 90% success rate.   So fingers are crossed.

If anyone else has had multiple VBAC experiences...I'd love to hear about it!

TIA!

Hi Amy! Good luck, you are almost there... I had a Csection with my first after she got stuck in the birth canal (almost 5 hours of pushing). 2nd successful Vbac 3rd emergency Csection after babies heart rate went crazy. 4th successful Vbac 39 hours after my water broke, no pitocin, slow slow labor, but I had amazing midwives who stayed with me and monitored the baby the entire time and we both were fine. 4 doctor rotations later, my baby girl was born. I am pregnant again and will be attempting my 3rd vbac. GOOD LUCK!

Congratulations on your VBAC and on having your third child.
My first was a c/s due to failure to progress (failure to wait?) with some fetal heart rate issues thrown in to tip the decision to go to surgery. Second baby was born one week short of two years later. I had an epidural, was in labor 7 hours after water broke, pushed 55 minutes, and that was the first VBAC.

Third baby was born 2-1/2 years later, unmedicated, 4-1/2 hours labor, and another VBAC. Both experiences were wonderful and I'm so grateful that it worked out.

Best wishes to you on your upcoming delivery. You have everything going for you to have a successful VBAC. Are you doing anything different this time around with your birth plan?

Elaine

Congrats!! I too am hoping for a second VBAC. I am also trying to decide if I want a home birth or hospital birth. I have a wonderful Midwife but I just want to feel secure when in labor. kwim
