Successful VBA2C

Posted by January Harshe on December 20, 2007

VBAC MAMAS

Part of my healing journey was a successful vaginal birth after 2 cesarean sections. My first 2 children were "born" via c-sections. I hated it. I want to have a section on my blog devoted to VBAC’s.

We have fun with getting skinny", but in reality we are of course about becoming healthier. I had to become healthier physically, emotionally and spiritually to accomplish the hardest thing in my life (the second hardest is my weight). My daughter is now 10 weeks old and I’m still processing this amazing feat.

I am going to write out my VBAC journey hoping it will inspire other mamas to take charge, stay strong and have a natural, vaginal birth if they so desire. It will probably be written in 3 parts over the next few weeks. Writing it out will help me heal, help inform others, and give me a chance to see what I was able to do!

A great place of support is the pregnancy forum on mothering.com. These mamas are inspirational and full of insight!
