OMG Im getting my VBA3C!!!!

I still can't believe it :dance: After searching high and low, I have finally found the most brilliant and supportive IM for my VBA3C. She is usually a HB midwife but is taking me on as a once off. She also works at the hospital where I plan to birth, so she is sorting everything out for me. I don't need to fight with doctors and midwives and explain all the details to them. Everything is being done for me :redface: Im so happy! To finally have an opportunity to birth one of my babies the way nature intended has made me the happiest woman in the world!!.

thats fantastic!!! congrats!!!

it must be a very good vbac day today i just found out my midwife is willing to let me go for a vbac with the twins!

congrats i know how happy you must be coz im feeling it too!

Yay! Congrats Mumma Bear (and you too, Mrs S!)!

Great news.

IM are definitely the way to go, aren't they Mrs S :) Especially when you find a brilliant one!

That's awesome, good luck!

i am very happy for you hunni :)
and i am very envious....making me teary actually.... i'm not even pregnant and i want a VBA3C for my next birth but hubby won't even consider going privatly, homebirth......i am shortly going to admit defeat i feel like ****e.....sorry for raining on your parade.....

i am waiting on a response from an OB who said he would support a VBA3C with me...i am wanting to hear his thoughts on birthing bub in a public hospital but as a private patient and wanting to know his fees

Wonderful, wonderful news!

Yay! That is awesome news. Congratulations!

:loveshower: Fantastic news! :loveshower:

Wonderful news :dance:

Katones, Im going to a public hospital and taking my own Midwife with me. Would that be an option for you??

i am in discussions with my hubby and then we shall see :) i'm soo sorry i put a downer on your exciting news

did you meet troubles etc when you booked in etc?? can you tell me the process you have gone through can PM me if you want....i will be going through the public system aswell.....i have also been speaking with 3 midwives this afternoon :)

Dont be sorry :) I know how stressful it is organising a vbac. I haven't officially booked in with the hospital yet. My IM is going to do it all for me as she works at the hospital where I plan to birth. She said not to worry about anything which is great. She knows a lot of the OB's at the hospital and says they will be fine. I think having your own midwife with you takes a lot of pressure off them IYKWIM? All you need to do is find a supportive midwife who understand what you are going through and will do everything in their power to help you and make you feel in control of the situation. There is nothing worse than feeling alone in your decision. I had that with my last pregnancy where I planned a vbac. I felt like I had everyone and everything against me, which is why I gave in and had a c-section. Support is crucial.

All the best in finding the perfect Midwife for you :)

thanks hunnI :)

i think i have found the midwife for me :) once i get preggers...i will go from there....DH is the one i have to tackle next...oh the joys....

That's ok, and congrats on finding a Midwife! That's step one done ;) As for DH...i wish you the best of luck. My DH didn't bother to argue with me..he knows who is boss LOL

Oh and best of luck with your next IVF cycle!! :)

thanks hunni :) nothing 'medically'wrong with me...just with my ex-husband he said no more children after 2 so i had my tubes surgically blocked and they can't be reversed....soooo IVF is the only way to bypass the blockage :)

DH knows i'm the boss but thinks me wanting a VBA3C is dangerous and going to compromise bubs life.....he needs education!!!!!

Just tell him that there is more potential risk with you having a 4th c-section, than a vba3c. Worked for me :) I am yet to tell my parents though...thats another story...

hmmmmmm just gotta get my confidence up to talk to him some more about it.....confidence is down the drain again because of my depression :(

That is so so awesome! So happy for you and so glad you dont have to fight for it! WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!! I am so looking forward to reading your birth story!

:cheer: awesome awesome news mate :)
