c - section vs natural birth

[vanessa_ramos]

When i was pregnant with my son.i was scheduled to go to the hospital a week b4 my due date.i was scheduled to go in bcuz my left side was hurting.all the baby's pressure was there.when they did the ultra sound on October 7th they said my baby's had less than 3% of water when they are suppose to have like 15-20%.i think.so they induced me with the highest level.and I didn't open.when I would lay facing up.i would get strong contractions.but I was always on my side so I wouldn't feel them.and I wouldn't get them.they said If they didn't see any difference they were going to have to do              c-section.so they did.im 12 weeks today and I don't want another c-section.has any1 gone through this? And had a normal delivery? I'm scared

No you can have them in California but its law that the doctor had to be there the whole time in case of uterine rupture.


But you need to ask your doctor or call midwives and ask around. Don't just ask one doctor because most say no.

Idk where u are from so idk if it wud be different. Im from cali. Vaginal deliveries are not done anymore if u have had a c-section. You have to have c-sections from now on after ur first.

Thankz for the vbac info..I didn't know about that..

[ericatoday]

Shouldn't have* I'm completely for vbacs so its up to you.

You should really look up vbac because you'll get a lot of mixed opinions but from what I read there is no reason you should have a normal delivery. Both ways have complications that could happen. Like vaginal could have a ruptured uterus but its not that common but doctors make it sound like it is because doctors would rather do c sections. Plus you have to talk to different doctors not all will do vbacs.
