Hello all,
I am very stressed at the moment and are presured to make a choise.

I had a very stressful labour last pregnancy which ended in 28 hours with a emergency c section. My baby was 9.5 pound and was laying posterior and never turned. The midwive I had was quite old and had experance, but ignored me every time drugs where mentioned. Its like I wasnt even there. The ob turned up and left and said that the baby should be born 4-5 hours time at 11 pm- midnight.

Time ticked on and I reached 9cm and she kept telling me to wait a bit longer. I
had been In labour at that time for 23 hours with only gas and still kept walking out when I was asking for an eppidrual. Then finally she said to me it was too late to have an eppidrual now. I was a mess, I was screaming out "Can someone kill me I cant handle this anymore" I had lost trust in the midwive and it was 3:30 am and still no OB. Finally she rang the ob and he came in angry, wondering why he wasnt called, and why I was pushing at 9 cm. The baby didnt make it out, so the birth end up with the c section as mentioned above.

I have a midwive I trust in this pregnancy because the hospital has a new program which allows me to keep the same widwive all the way through the pregnancy. (I know I wont be ignored this time.) Only worry I have is that I am bigger this pregnancy and look like Im due to give birth now at 35 weeks.

Going through another pregnancy with a bigger baby, and being posterior am I out of my mind?I feel the weight and size of this baby is going to be massive since my last was long and heavy? (I think we are talking of a 10.5 pounder here.)


What do you guys think?

Has anyone had a vbac with a 10 pounder or bigger?
