About Me
Hi there. I am 22 years old, and I have a beautiful little boy, born Sept 2010. My husband and I decided around his 1st birthday to start trying for another baby to add to our family. One month later exactly... I recieved my beautiful light pink positive <3My Birth Plan
With my first baby, just over one year ago, it was decided by my trusty ob/gyn to have an elective cesaerean due to the fact that my baby's head was apparently too large, and my pelvis to small for a vaginal birth. I was told I would put my myself and the baby under unnecessary pressure if I had natural and that I would probably end up having an emergency c-sec. After my baby was born I felt very detached from him, and that I had failed as a mother/woman. I battled to breastfeed and to this day feel like I was cheated.With baby #2 I am 100% into looking into VBAC (vaginal birth after cesaeren), and I am open to any advice and any help pro VBAC.
I want to experience that what was given to every woman... in a natural home style environment, with my mother and sisters around.
