Vanessa's VBAC


You will be pleased to know that I achieved the natural birth that I so wanted! She did end up being a forceps delivery as she remained back to back (like her brother) but I still avoided that dreaded operation!
 
I went into labour at 6pm but it was really manageable until about 9pm when the midwife came and checked me to say that I was 6cm and that it was time to go to hospital.

By the time I reached Treliske I was 8cm and within an hour it was time to push. All done on two paracetomol and gas and air in the last hour!
 
Thank you so much for the support and information you gave me in the run up to my delivery. By talking everything through with me and teaching me about the birth process you gave me the confidence to go ahead with a natural birth that I don't think I would have had without you.
