I was so wanting a water birth next time or at least not to have to be induced so I could try for a natural . but nope.…

You and I have the same views, my next baby I want a midwife and a water birth

I think the phentanol is different for everyone my sister-in-law said it only worked for what felt like two minutes and was back to feeling everything but for me it let me fall asleep between contractions till it came time to push. the pushing didn't hurt at all just the contractions.

your all good :) yes I didn't want the epi at all . I tried the phetanol however you spell a few times prior but it wasnt really helping with anything. @tae23

during labor. did they try iv meds to help you sleep before your epi? sorry if I'm asking so many questions. I'm super curious

@tae23,

for pushing ? or during labor? I didn't get to push . but I was mostly up for my labor walking round and moving. I got the epi so I could sleep but before I slept his heart rate started to plummet.

did they have you in the same position. for a long period of time? that could have contributed. my midwife had me change postions every 30 minutes

I'll do some research but my baby head was stuck in my pelvis . and his heart rate was dropping . thank you also though ☺ @tae23

research girl. I promise you, your doctor either got impatient or is just not fully informed. I had a girl in my birthing classes vbac after an emergency c section with a small pelvis and she was doing birthing classes for an unmedicated vbac. http://www.bellybelly.com.au/birth/small-pelvis-big-baby-cpd/

I'm sorry but whatever doctor told you that is full of BS. You can most certainly do a VBAC with a small pelvis. get a good midwife next time and I can guarantee you, that you could if you wanted too.

@tae23,

I had to get a emergency csection and the problem is I'm too small to push a baby through my pelvis .

why can't you next time,
