Oh m y goodness Nai, definately very lucky that you trusted your instincts, and listened to your body!!!! My worst fear when trying for my VBAC.
I am so glad that it worked out well for you and baby Juilette and you are here to tell the story. Congrats on a job well done..:clap:

Wow Nai :o

What an incredible, remarkable, miraculous birth Juliette had. Thanks for sharing it. Well done! You are my new hero and I hope I have/develop those kinds of instincts as a mum.

I'm so glad you are both ok Nai, how scary. You did so well!!
Congratulations and welcome little Juliette!!

Thank you everyone - I really wanted to get everything down before I forgot and lost my memory to sleep deprivation! The hopsital has internet so DP brought the laptop in which is great.

I also wanted to add that I would have been lost without my wonderful support team - my DP Cory, my doula Kelly and my OB Nicola (yes middle name after her). Cory was great at making sure I didn't dismiss my instincts, Kelly's words "you are doing the right thing" got me through and Nicola basically saved our lives by getting us into theatre and getting Juliette out so quickly.

Thanks to my wonderful team xxx

congrats nai...well done on trusting your instincts hun.
welcome to the world juliette.

WOW Nai - good on you for following your instincts.

A huge congratulations to you and Juliette for her safe arrival, and to your fabulous support team. It must have been very reassuring to have a great Ob and Doula there with you.

:hug: Congrats again

Nai,

Congratulations on the arrival of your darling daughter!

Congratulations on listening to your body, and speaking up and acting! You must feel really empowered! You have turned a very scary experience into something so positive.

Thank you for sharing such an important story, a cautionary tale, with us all.

I hope your recovery is swift and that you are home and settled with your bubby very soon.

Nai, Congratulations on the arrival of little Juliette. Wonderful news!!!

Sorry to hear about your uterine rupture. Mine ruptured during labour with DD2 (I was booked for a c/s but went into labour early) lucky they got me to theatre in time before anything really bad happend. I have now been told no more kids, are you able to have any more?

Apparently my repair is good for 1 more but would be a c/s at 37 weeks. I don't think we will be taking that risk though.

Wow Nai!

You had a brilliant support team to hold your hands and you must have felt so supported and nurtured. Good on you for trying for a VBAC and for knowing when to trust your instinct when it didn't feel right.

:hug:

Love the ticker pic BTW! Genevieve must be smitten :D

Congratulations on the safe arrival of your little princess!
It is so important to listen to your body and the only thing that matters in the end is that mum and bub are H&H.

Well done
:D

Congratulations Nai - listening to your instincts saved you and Juliette's lives. Your amazing!!

Just goes to show that mum knows best!!

Nai instinct is a wonderful thing and I am glad you listened, explained clearly and were checked over in time. Congrats on a safe birth of baby Juliette.

Nai I can't believe how calm you seem about it all - I think I would still be a blithering mess after that!
Wow, congratulations on your beautiful child, and well done to you and your awesome team for bringing everyone safely through a very scary experience!
