I wound up with a c-section with DD.
My doctor supports a 2nd c-section.

Re: Just curious...c-section or "natural"

I had a wonderful viginal delivery. It was really one of the most empowering experiences I ever had!

Hoping for another V-delivery with #2!Chat Icon

Re: Just curious...c-section or "natural"

C-Section. I had the BEST experience and would not change a thing. It was the one thing I did not want and ended up with one although, it was not as bad I as I thought it would be.

No VBAC for me. Doctor said that if I can have another baby (we will see from the results of my cardiac testing) it will be a scheduled C.

C-Section. Water broke, petocin, no dialation past 3cm. They do seem to be more common. Not sure what I'll do for the second. I am a chicken and I feel like I took the easy way out. Although the recovery was horrible!

#1 - v-birth, with epidural...FOUR hours of pushing!Chat Icon Vacuum assist.

#2 - v-birth, no meds...also vacuum assist.

Second time was by far, a MUCH better experience without the epidural. Recovery was practically instantaneous after birth. If I was going to have a third (which I'm NOT!), I would definitely go non-medicated again!Chat Icon

Re: Just curious...c-section or "natural"

Technically natural but I was induced due to low amniotic fluid and had already reached full term.

I did have an epi though, Induced labor is a lot harder and faster than completely natural so I had to.
