The doctor is trying to persuade me to have another c-section instead of a VBAC. If I go to my due…

This is happening to me too. They were so mean about it. All I wanted was to get to go through it once. He said you already had a c-section and things were fine, why would you even want to do a Vbac... I want the experience and it's technically better for the baby. I never realized I'd have to fight with the Dr to have my baby naturally :-(... I'm sorry you are going through it too!

@mct, ya the nurse was surprised I wanted to try a VBAC. I was like ya I do not want another c-section! Do you doctors not understand this. I signed the risk paper lol

@alyssa_hoffmaster same thing on my end. I don't understand! So frustrating!

@birdknees79, yes, I will fight it unless absolutely necessary

@birdknees79, ya, the recovery was awful. I’ve never had a vaginal birth so I don’t know the recovery for that. But I don’t want to go through that again

My doctor is telling me same thing... If you've tried everything you can think of to get her out.. try this (midwife brew).. my sister in law drank it and was in labor a few hours later... and doctors give out the brew so it's not harmful.. If you try it let me know how it works

@familyislife121417, do you know what’s in it?

2 tablespoons of almond butter

2 tablespoons of castor oil

250 ml of lemon verbana tea

300 ml of apricot juice

Blend all ingredients until smooth (drink with ice cubes and it goes down easier)

Thank you! I don’t know if I can do it but I might try

I wouldn’t schedule or go in for a scheduled csection until at least 42 weeks. There is no harm in doing so. Also I’d try and see if there is any other obs around you that can take you that are more vbac friendly. Not just tolerant.

Also, we have a vbac group if you’d like to join 🙂 https://web.mom.life/chat/topic/21514fde-6355-4d1a-bc80-b0d7c9918883
