I hope it’s okay- I posted this on two local parenting boards: Awesome AP Moms of Temecula Valley Meetup group and Cloth Diapering and Baby Wearing in the IE Meetup group.
Wendy, That is great! Thank you! Best, Jen
I’d love to be there! I am not pregnant, but just had a “failed” VBAC and for #3, I want everything totally different!!
I am 29 weeks pregnant (due date 4-24-09), feeling good and on the path to educating myself about vaginal birth following a complicated c-section almost 6 years ago with my first son who was breech. I am feeling very frustrated with my ObGyn’s (and her contracted hospital’s – Cedars Sinai, LA) over-precautious attitude towards a VBAC experience for me. From the first sign of labour, they will have me hooked up to a monitor and a catheter inserted in case of need for epidural/ emerg. c-section I am looking to find a broader spectrum of opinion out there.
This is excellent of you. Spread the gospel sister. I hope I have my CCE in the next year, and I’ll be doing the same thing.
