Has anyone had a succesful vaginal birth after a cesearean section with a previous birth?
Answer:
Yes, I too had a successful natural birth after a caesarian, but it took a lot of convincing my obstitrition as he was fairly reluctant to allow me to. It all was fine though, a fantastic experience compared to a caesarian so I would really push the fact that you strongly want a natural birth. The chances of complications aren't overly terribly higher compared to caesarian births. and the recovery time is a lot quicker (obviously!) giving you more quality time with bub. I'd say go for it, unless there is a genuinly serious reason not to. Natural birth is an amazing experience all moms should have the right to. Good Luck!
Yes.My grandaughter just recently.
My friend is the oldest of three, and she was a c-section. Her younger siblings were both natural. And they are all fine and dandy now!
My mother had my baby sister about 10 months after a Cesarian section with my other sister, there was no problems in the vaginal birth as it went very smoothly. Unless the doctors have already told you that it's not a good idea, go for it, the worst that can happen is they might tell you in the end that you need another C-Section. Take care, Hope all works well for you.
Yes, it's called VBAC, but it's dependent on your situation, time since last delivery, and the type of incision that was made for your first c-section.
I did! I was lucky enough to have a dr. that would let me try it. Everyt hing went fine luckily enough. We were even able to do it with no epidural or pain killers of any kind. I havent read up on the subject but I am guessing that the success rate depends on why you had a c-section the first time. My c-section was terrible and I was scared to death to do it again. My daughter was six weeks early, I had eclampsia, had seizures during the c-section and SHE was ready to leave the hospital before I was! The vaginal birth went great...would have went home the next day but I got my tubes tied so that ended up taking an extra day. I would talk to my dr. about it if I were you, and if he says no get a second oppinion. Six months seems a little soon to be having another baby but that is between you and your dr. Good luck!
I have not had personal experience with this situation however, I have known several women that have either had a vback or been convinced why they shouldn't. It all boils down to the OB/midwife that you choose. You may have to interview a few before you will find one that can support you in your birth choice.
I will say that the mainstream medicine makes giving birth a hypocritical situation. They take ridiculous precautions and work to scare women in to being subservient to their education and training which in no way includes the body's own natural abilities.
For example, if your water breaks they tell you to go to the hospital ASAP due to the potential of an infection setting in. When in all actuality, the odds of infection are less than one percent, whats more you are WAY more likely to contract an infection in a hospital than staying in your own home.
Read up on Vbacks! Talk to many midwives and OB's and mothers. Education is the key for you to have the birth that you want! Good luck!
yes my mom 1 cesearean (me)
2 vaginal
2 cesarean
1 adoption
Don't do it!!!! I did it. My cesearean was 7 years before my natural, and it almost ended in the death of me and my son, and not to mention almost left my daughter motherless. What happens is during contraction the old scare could reopen-which will lead to inturnal bleading. My scare reopened so far that my son slipped into my abdomen. My son was very ill his first 3 years of life. He had multiple types of therpy due to the damage I CAUSED HIM. This is something I wanted to do, not him. Not just my son, but I was in bad shape. I was in the hospital for 3 weeks and left without a uterus. I was only 25 years old and I was done having my family. My doctor was a specialest in vbac and He let me no all the rick up front and I didn't heed his warnings. I was the perfect canidate for a vbac-still awlful ending.
