Nai! That is absolutely wonderful hun!!!!!!!!!! Having supportive people around you is one of the most important things I think ( will let you know for sure in 11 weeks time when I have my vbac
but that really is great!
Your story is so similar to mine, posterior labour, long labour, and a midwife and DH who didn't know what to do to help relieve the back pain, other than give me an epidural and then a c/s. I got to 7cms too before the epi and then 9 cms so completely understand the feeling of being ripped off.
I have complete faith in my body, my DH and my doula this time around, and my hospital will follow suit as well!!
I have read sooo much on VBAC and lots of birth stories that really help affirm that what I am doing is the right thing. Welcome aboard!!!!!!!!
