    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

    Congratulations again, Mel

    So sorry you didn't get your VBAC, but ultimately you did what a good mummy has to do - and thats the safest thing for your little girl

    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

    Thank-you so much for sharing your story Mel.

    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!

    Mel, congratulations hun. I know this wasn't the way you had it planned, and I have been worried about how you have been doing. But I am glad to read that you have found some peace with it, and that there are lots of positives in there for you. You have done an amazing job, and I think that as you get your head around it more, this will be easier to accept. Take care hun.
