My Journey to VBAC

After an unplanned c-section with our first, we planned a Vaginal Birth After a Cesarean with our 2nd. Even though I had it all planned out early on, we encountered some issues which led us to a homebirth -- which was the most amazing experience.

@1robinsong omg i know! considering full term goes to 42 weeks, the baby could have been 7 WEEKS EARLY! crazy

The OB stripped your membranes at 35 weeks?! Criminal!

Thank you for sharing this. Your video is an inspiration. I am reading on how to have an all natural no hospital birth. I'm not pregnant yet, but am finding that knowledge is power and will help me when the time is right. Peace and Light.

My goodness. This made me tear up! I want that so bad but I'm afraid of having a VBAC. I'm 6 weeks so I really need to figure it out =[

Beautiful video! I hope to have a VBAC when we begin TTC next year. My son was unplanned c section and devastating experience. Thanks for sharing!

This is so inspiring. I am trying to get a VBAC but am having a lot of trouble from family and doctors about it.

Awesome! I also VBAC'd twice after a planned C-section with our first because I had a brain tumor and they didn't want me to push (risk of brain stem hernia). But after the c-section, the tumor was removed, and then I had two VBACs with our second and third child.  Great video!!

Excellent Video! This is our hope too...1st one was a c-section after he was breech....now 24 weeks pregnant and planning a homebirth!

Thanks for your story!
