My c-section with my son was a planned section for breech and it was a very positive experience, but not the same. After my daughter was born so easily and powerfully, I shuddered at the thought of being cut open again. <br /><br />http://cairomama.blogspot.com/2010/03/evas-birth-story-one-year-later-long.html<br /><br />Also, people don't seem to get it that everyone should be able to make their own choices and if someone is happier with a repeat c-section, then great for them. However, most people don't get the full the facts to make an informed decision and many women who do want a VBAC don't have proper support. And that is what we fight for, not to make someone else feel guilty.Mama Seoulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16013830400454840736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279724539848862725.post-7595683852868807532010-05-09T11:27:11.857-05:002010-05-09T11:27:11.857-05:00Hi Becky - I just found your site and love it.
I&#...Hi Becky - I just found your site and love it.<br />I've got a question and I'm hoping you can steer me to a good resourse. I've had 7 babies, all uncomplicated vaginal deliveries in hospitals with a doc, nurse, or pediatrician who doesn't see things the way we do. While we're not pregnant now, I know it is only a matter of time. I'd like to discuss a homebirth with my husband but we've been assured by a previous doctor that post partum hemorage is a huge possibility because of all the babies I've birthed - and they always put me on pitocin right after delivery to ensure my uterus contracts. Do you know of any resources to get honest information on this possibility? I'm 35, not overweight, no health issues, and have normal deliveries and babies. <br />Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.<br />Love your blog - you're such an inspiration!<br />you can email me at mel (at) crazyreinvented (dot) comMelhttp://www.ourblessedarrows.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279724539848862725.post-59679095941665067652010-04-14T12:03:38.415-05:002010-04-14T12:03:38.415-05:00I love the descriptions of your births!

It was a little heartbreaking, there were at least 8 different times in the birth story where she said that she had NO REGRETS!, often in all capitals. She even threw in some one liner about not further endangering her baby with a VBAC. I really had nothing to add to that. :/ (Well, someone had already countered her "dangerous VBAC" quip, but all the rest was just so obvious she was trying to convince herself. I believe there can be good RCS's but that was not one of them. I hope one day she is able to face what happened.)Stassjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04623711930452942817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4279724539848862725.post-84674866625115081592010-04-14T09:55:07.025-05:002010-04-14T09:55:07.025-05:00Because the possibility of pooping during labor is...Because the possibility of pooping during labor is somehow worse than the possibility of being incontinent for the rest of your life because the surgeon screws up during a section?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
