It is an amazing feeling when you realise that it really is about to happen the way you wanted it to. Almost surreal. I am so happy that you got to experience that! Congratulations again.
Woot!
Great story, well done Heaven. It sounds like it all went so well and you coped really well throughout it! I especially loved that you were able to enjoy your DH's enjoyment in the middle of it all What a wonderful experience for you both.
It just makes my heart swell
Congratulations and welcome to the world little one!!
Congratulations again Heaven, you did such an awesome job! You are such an inspiration for me, you rock!!! I'm sure I'll be reading over your birth story quite a few more times before this bub arrives!
I'm so happy for you, and so happy you got the birth you wanted!
i am soo glad you got an awesome birth hun!!!
isnt it amazing and healing???
once again a big congrats and well done for being brave enough to birth the way you wanted to !!
Gosh, what a beautiful birth story Heaven, I have tears - I started bawling reading the part you wrote about realising you were getting your VBAC - Yay, what a legend you are!!
Awesome birth story heaven you already know I am so happy for you that you got your vbac!! I knew you could and I knew you would all along!!
I could relate to so much of your story as my labour was just under that (9.5hrs) and I too felt like maybe I had ages to go and that maybe we were going to hospital too soon etc but contractions were happening so fast, like you, we had to go in!
I laughed when you said about how weird it is seeing a head sticking out of you ...it sure is surreal huh!?!?! I still think 2yrs on, how surreal it is haha but how beautiful at the same time.
It's amazing how wonderfully supportive our men can be too! I'm so glad your dh was so supportive etc, it can't be easy for them seeing their wives/partners in so much pain either.
Congratulations Heaven - you are an inspiration to me to give it a go next time around, I have a 15 month old and hoping to fall pregnant soon and have around the same age gap as yourself. Wish me luck in all respects! What an amazing story you told. Well done!
