    Oh sweetheart I'm so sorry you didn't get your VBAC but as you said, you made the toughest and most important decision of all, and that was to make sure your daughter lived and you get to spend the rest of your life with her, rather than living with any regret.
    You did absolutely everything possible to make it happen hun and she is so beautiful! So glad you have been bonding well, judging from the photo it looks like Aricyn thinks she is pretty special! to all of you - enjoy your baby moon.

    I'm so glad little Mehkelti arrived safe and sound! I'm sorry you didn't get your VBAC, but you did your absolute best to try and have one. You definitely made the right decision about having a c/s. You are one very strong woman!

    Congratulations again!

    You did an amazing job Mel

    You sacrificed your desire for a VBAC to bring your daughter into this world the safest way possible and that is truely admirable. You did a fantastic job and you have two beautiful, healthy, happy children. I will always look up to you Mel for the strength and endurance you showed in the weeks leading up to Mehkelti's birth. What an incredible woman and mother you are. You should be so proud of yourself

    Its nice to hear everything was relaxed and such a nice atmosphere was set for the c section - I'm so glad to hear that you bonded well with Mehkelti

    I agree with Sarah re the stubborn streak

    I am so glad to hear that Mehkelti is here safe and well. I am so sorry you didn't get your much wanted VBAC but it is great to hear that is was a much more pleasant experience than last time.

    Mehkelti is truly gorgeous... you and Craig sure cook up good looking kiddies

    Mel, you did the best thing for you and Mehkelti to get her here safely! Obviously she was too comfortable in there and didn't want to come out. Naughty little rabbit.

    I'm sorry you didn't get to go for your VBAC but you have a wonderful outcome which is the best thing!
