VBAC with Classical Incision |
| Message: |
Hi Henci,
I had a classic cesarean in January 2006 (inverted-T incision) and a prior vaginal birth 4 years ago (2002). I am now 13 weeks pregnant and have found a maternal-fetal medicine specialist at a local teaching hospital that is open to me having a VBAC. I am so excited. He suggested continuous fetal monitoring - external and/or internal. He said no drugs would be used (Pitocin, Cytotec) and recommended against having any pain medication. Can you offer any other suggestions for a woman in my position?
My goal is a healthy baby and mother. My son who was born in January passed away at 4 days old. Not because of the cesarean, but because he had a large sacrococcygeal teratoma that required surgery to remove it.
Thank you for any feedback.
