jealous :(

I'm scheduled for a c-section and to my doctor there is no debate. This is my 3rd snd my other 2 were c-section.  I tried having my daughter naturally and I stopped progressing so it ended in an emergency c-section.  I asked if I could try v-bac with #2 and he waited til 40 weeks and told me I was not going to be able to. So they cut me open. All these women including my friends just push babies out like nothing.  I wish I could have the experience just once. But the Dr said my body doesn't act preg. Like my hips don't seporate and my cartilage doesn't thin like normal. But I can't help but think what could happen if I waited. There are people that go to 42 even 43 weeks. Sometimes i have thoughts like purposely going MIA until I pop.

I know what you mean and its nice seeing other women feel the same.  I am attempting a vba2c but it isnt looking too promising as she got herself stuck in my pelvic bone.  But I looked online for expert vbac doctors in my area and found one.  And she is making me stick this out til a lil after 41 weeks just incase we can get baby to move so I am not left with regrets or wondering.  She has set rules and limits from the beginning but as long as baby and I r not being threatened she will make me hang in there.
I also have wondered, what if my other doctors had given me more time or it had been the olden days.  Iwas very depressed after my second csection so I just hope I at least feel real labor this time as I dont want to hit that low I hit after my last csection.

I feel you this will be my fourth c section I hate that I never even had a chance to try to deliver vaginally I was told with my firth that I have a narrow cervix and my pelvic bone sticks out on one side...if it was back in the old days before c section my doc says I would have been a women to die during child birth I feel very deprived though that they didn't even give me a chance to try with all the things we have this day an age but i guess I am greatful to be able to have children no matter how they are brought into this world as long as they get here safe n sound!!!

I would get a second opinion. Doctors jump to c sections more for convenience these days do i wouldn't trust the word of just one doctor. I'd ask multiple and I'd also ask them their c section to vaginal birth ratio before choosing them as my doctor. this it's your birth experience not theirs. it should be how you want it and I'd try to get more opinions on vbac before allowing one to cut me open for possible convenience. jnmo.

Same here, second csection scheduled tomorrow morning. I desperately wanted a vbac but looks like it won't happen. It is nice knowing that tomorrow my little girl will be in my arms, but i don't understand how even my sister can pop three out normal worth no problems and I can't. Its sad but thankful that they have a procedure where it's not just you or the baby.
