Ok, so you decided that you're going for that vaginal birth after a cesarean... how do you set yourself up for it to be "successful" (meaning, happen. You're a success whether you have a vaginal birth or cesarean birth FYI)? Are there things you can do before birth that can help? Are there things that make you more or less likely for it to "work"? YES! I lay it out for you here - you CAN do it, persevere, be patient, trust in the process, and flex & flow! I'm cheering you on!

I had a successful vbac on January 24th and it was the BEST decision and experience EVER!!! My doctor induced me at 39weeks. I had an epidural and pushed for 20mins tops! I was told I had a low chance for a successful vbac by my doctor but she still supported my decision to try for a vbac. We all had a celebration once our sweet baby girl Malia arrived! 💕 YOU CAN DO IT!!! 👣

@kamilhickley2004 5 лет назад

Lisa Lowery thank you for the motivation!!! I calculated my chances of a VBAC just for fun and I had an 89.9% I’m very optimistic about pushing my little one out... Thanks again for sharing your experience 😃

I just had a successful vba2c 2 weeks ago.. I switched doctors at 37 weeks and it was the best decision I’ve made! Pushed less than 15 min and my baby boy was placed on me💙💙 it really depends on your provider if they are vbac supportive or vbac tolerant and Sarah is right advocate for yourself and get informed for successful vbac. The calculator is not accurate I was told less than 38% for successful vbac.. I didn’t listen to that and had no complications! Praise god

I am due today with my 2nd. I am hoping for a vbac. The closer and closer I get to delivering, the more anxious I get. The more I doubt myself. One thing I had in my mind was that, if I had the same issues with this delivery as with the first (the baby not dropping), I'd ask for a c-section, to avoid an emergency situation. Your video really helped me want to push past that point. I even shared some of your tips with my husband and I could see they made him feel a lot better as well. Thanks so much for this and hopefully this delivery goes well!

@Kkaren1328 2 года назад

My first pregnancy I got induced at 39weeks by my doctor who was going to be out of town on my due date. I was very naive and didn’t have anyone telling me otherwise. I wasn’t dilating at all, my daughter went into distress and was breech. I believe she wasn’t ready. I ended up having a C-section. Very traumatic and dreaded the idea of getting pregnant again. I’m now pregnant and due in September 2022 and my new doctor said I’m a candidate for a Vbac and couldn’t be more excited and happy/nervous. I really hope it’s successful and smooth.

Turns out when he came out he was a tiny perfect 7lbs and was swimming in his newborn clothes.

The most horrible thing about my son’s birth (2019) was the constant re-traumatization caused by the horrible nurses! Yes, I said it. Because only a horrible person would find it in any way appropriate to come into the room of a woman in que for a c-section and demand to know about her history of IVF and miscarriages, when they could just look at her well documented chart instead. I was there to have a baby, and no less than 7 hospital employees brought me to tears rehashing my history of loss. It was so. Awful.

Sarah, this was so helpful for me. I had a c-section almost 11 months ago and have been trying to do as much research as I can on VBAC! I dilated to a 6 after going into labor naturally at home and stayed there for over 12 hours once in the hospital😬, in the mean time I was given two epidurals which both did not work at all (having intense back labor). I ended up having a 9lb 5 oz baby, her being delivered only 2 days late via emergency csection. My question is, would it be possible for me to attempt a vbac at a birthing center without pain medication (because the epidural didn’t even work so, what’s the point)? Also, are there certain guidelines for a vbac when baby is measuring large for gestational age? Thank you for all of your content, I am so encouraged by you and wish you could be my doula 💁🏻‍♀️

I’m hoping for a VBAC with this baby but am worried about the short amount of time between giving birth and conceiving. The main concern is the integrity and healing progress of my incision site. Do you have any more info on that? The 18 months suggestion is always put out there first but most literature I find on the subject suggests the majority of healing is done in the weeks right after. I would appreciate any articles or videos you could point me towards!

I’m a little nervous about the process. I was sure I wasn’t the proper candidate for VBAC. I’m obese and I’ve had two previous c sections. I’m 30. And the dr who performed the second c section has told me he’s okay with trying a VBAC this time. I haven’t gained a lot this pregnancy, not that I could afford to, and I’ve been told it’s ‘all baby’. He’s also larger and the dr was worried about gestational diabetes but I passed the glucose 1 hr. Toward the end of the 3rd trimester now and he says if I go into labor naturally and can progress to 5 on my own then we will try to push, and if not he will take the baby mid 39 weeks. I’ve gone back and forth for a few reasons. I have a 1 year old I have to chase after along with my oldest who is 8, and I’m getting her back and forth to school and running the house. I can’t really afford to be out of commission and if I have the c section I won’t be able to lift my heavy son for 7 weeks (the 1 year old). If I don’t have a c section, I have to come back 6 weeks later to get tubes tied like I’m hoping to do, and I really can’t afford to take time off a second time for an additional procedure when I have all these babies to care for. If im being honest it probably won’t happen if we can’t get it done all at once. I don’t know what my stance is. It’s just a complicated situation

Does inducing your labor with the midwives brew counts as my body not starting labor on its own?

Whats the time gap betueen the c section and a vbac in order to have a successful vbac??

@dpelli 5 лет назад

Can you do a video on breathing techniques during labor?!? I've had a pelvic floor physical therapist tell me it's crucial, but labor classes I've been to don't seem to think it is (that whoever is in the room with me at the time will talk me through it). Just would like to know some tips/techniques BEFORE I'm in the heat of labor lol

@sarahlavonne 5 лет назад

HI! I actually have an entire class about it and many other things to help you cope! (Coping with Labor class - it's totally worth it!)

@SK-ut6tw 2 года назад

I would love a vbac but I've had 3 sections. 1st 2 they induced me and only gave me 10 hours to labor. I got to a 7 both times at 10 hours and they wouldn't let me labor any longer. No distress or real reason. They just called it failure to progress.

@brody0822 5 лет назад

28 weeks here and have been prepping for VBAC. My csection was done because I pushed for 4 hours and baby did not descend. The doctor says that my body just isnt made for delivery. I'm heading for a second opinion but my origional doctor says that he put in my charts he strongly suggests I do not not have a VBAC. Due to the fact that it will probably end in another section. And I do love my doctor and appreciate his professional opinion, I just was super uneducated for my first birth, and just scared the whole time. This time I want to go.in with an open mind and having more education going into my labor. Am I a really bad candidate for VBAC? my soul will be crushed if I just can not even attempt it.

I wish you could be my doula for my next baby! I had an emergency csection (fetal distress) last summer with our first baby (girl) and I have been super sad/ traumatized about my labor experience because of it. I labored for 34 hours and pushed for 1 hour and it all ended in a csection. I am really wanting to do a VBAC but my doctors (who I loved) absolutely don’t do it as their policy. Im debating whether or not to go for a VBAC which is unknown, or just doing a scheduled csection with the doctors I know and trust. I feel confident though that I could deliver vaginally if given the chance since I was so close in my first labor!! Such a tough choice.

I am wondering if this information applies to myomectomy. I would like to get pregnant and try for a vaginal birth, but I am not able to find information on vaginal delivery after myomectomy. All I see is woman getting c sections after a myomectomy. Any advice in this area? Great videos by the way!

@heatherstanton3245 4 года назад

I’m hoping for a VBAC but I’m starting to get discouraged. My first baby was born 8 years ago via C section at 29 weeks. Today I am 39 weeks and haven’t dilated or thinned at all. Haven’t had any contractions. And my doctor mentioned repeat c section at my appointment yesterday even though he’s the one that told me I would be a great VBAC candidate and got my hopes up. 😔

I'm setting up to give birth at a hospital that doesn't allow support people, nobody, not even doulas. Is it still worth it to have a doula, even if they can't go into the hospital? Also, I want to stay at home at long as possible, would that put the doula at risk for being in a situation they are uncomfortable with?

Look up vbac exercises or pregnancy exercises. Also, go to a chiropractor regularly. Insurance usually covers it.

I just didnt dilate with my first well I wasnt dilating fast enough and I was having to fight the fact my body was trying to push on it's own, I had multiple types of pain relief nothing worked and I knew I wasnt going to get anywhere because I'd been at it that long so I said I want a c section but I want putting under I cant be awake for that it was already traumatic enough and the stupid anethnatisst said to me I'm not prepared todo that because I dont want you comin to me complaining your baby is on a ventilator, traumatic doesnt begin to cover just that let alone the rest that went on while I was in labour and after the fact not being able to look after my own baby and they didnt give a damn so he went all night without a feed and they wanted to leave him in a dirty nappy for 4 hours I refused to stay any longer and hobbled off the ward because they said if I didnt walk out I wasnt leaving, endedup unable to walk for over a week after because of the pain 😑, wish I'd just stuck with what I wanted and stayed at home, hate hospitals as it is and knew it would all go to hell and I'd say I wasnt far wrong, just hope I dont endup with another c section with the next one 🤞
