Her two sections were done under questionable conditions so that made her even more willing to try since they weren't crazy medically necessary. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2470643 Mon, 22 Feb 2016 23:39:03 +0000 MsMini 2470643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None of the OBs in my city will. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2470639 Mon, 22 Feb 2016 23:35:35 +0000 misolee 2470639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just had a VBAC ☺️ and I asked a lot of questions beforehand about it. Even after two csec, it is allowed if you're the right candidate as it is with just one csec. However, statistically speaking, if you had two csec then the chances of you becoming the right candidate for the third also decreases just based on your body. For example, if you fail to progress for both deliveries, there's a high chance the same will happen. It all depends. </p> <p>My midwife/Doctor group is very vbac friendly and encouraged it but only one of the hospital they are associated with is team vbac. The non friendly hospital was closer and newer but I couldn't go to that one and had to make a drive to the other one </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2470548 Mon, 22 Feb 2016 20:52:45 +0000 pastemoo 2470548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: My cousin had VBA3C. It really depends on the town and the indication.... and I think you have to wait a little longer at home (early labor) if you want to be successful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458605 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 16:46:45 +0000 QBbride 2458605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes it is "allowed", it is a matter of finding a care provider who is supportive. I've heard of many stories of successful VBA2Cs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458562 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 16:29:57 +0000 lilyann 2458562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Very few providers here will take on a VBA2C. We are pretty limited on the number of OBs that will take on VBACs as well. I was able to have one and was very thankful to my OB. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458558 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 16:26:22 +0000 mfa_lady 2458558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My midwifery practice (associated with our local teaching hospital) will do it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458555 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 16:24:25 +0000 Boogs 2458555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My OB was really encouraging regarding a vbac. I'm curious about if I had two c/s prior, but I don't know the answer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458497 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 15:41:26 +0000 Autumnmama79 2458497@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@avivoca: As someone who is planning on a vbac, this is fascinating. I cannot believe that some hospitals even have the right to disallow it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458443 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 15:13:04 +0000 daniellemybelle 2458443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've heard of this plenty in my VBAC Facebook group. I am not looking at their guidelines, but I am almost positive the ACOG says they are fine if you are otherwise low risk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458391 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 14:40:11 +0000 erinbaderin 2458391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it also depends on the reason for your VBACs, and how long it's been since the last one. I've only had one c section but it was because the baby was breech. My midwives told me I was an ideal candidate for a VBAC because it wasn't like my pelvis was too small, or my labour failed to progress, etc., so they can assume that my body will respond "normally" to labour, and because it has been more than 2 years since my last c section so allegedly the chance of a uterine rupture at the scar is only 0.5% higher than with somebody who hasn't had a C. I don't know if that increases/changes after a second, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458333 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 13:59:06 +0000 avivoca 2458333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My friend attempted it with her last child. She ended up having to have a repeat C because he wasn't responding well to the contractions. It's a matter of finding the right OB/Midwife who is comfortable with it and finding a hospital that will allow VBACs. Most hospitals in my state do not allow VBACs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458302 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 13:47:33 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2458302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My OB is cool with it for the right candidate.<br /> I'm not a candidate though. Having had a 10.75 lb baby ten days early by c-section makes me terrified that if have a 12.5lb baby at 42 weeks vaginally. No thank you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458253 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 13:20:17 +0000 Happygal 2458253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never known anyone to try. Friends going for a Vbac usually have tight limits, so I can't imagine what it would be like after 2! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458249 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 13:17:20 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2458249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is definitely allowed (Google VBA2C for a bunch of stories). The hardest part would be finding an OB who is willing to do one. I know that my OB is open to them though!</p> <p>ETA: Found a birth story of a triplet VBA2C done by my OB! <a href="http://atlantabirthcenter.org/2012/04/my-birth-story-michelles-triplet-vba2c/" rel="nofollow">http://atlantabirthcenter.org/2012/04/my-birth-story-michelles-triplet-vba2c/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-a-vaginal-delivery-allowed-after-2-rcs#post-2458223 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 13:06:53 +0000 regberadaisy 2458223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is a purely curiosity question.</p> <p>I know a lot of ladies have problems finding an OB that will let you try for a vaginal delivery after a C Section. What about a vaginal delivery after TWO C sections? I feel like that would be next to impossible to find a OB that will sign off on that?</p> <p>Again, I have no experience, just curious. </p>
