Congratulations, questions like yours let things change.
You even can ask the midwife to listen with the doppler to the heartbeat in
stead off the monitor. It will be difficult to have each hour 15 minutes of
monitoring when labor will go on really. You are stricted in moving around
and in the positions you can take.
Intermittend listening to the heartbeat has proven to be safe and gives a
lot more comfort to you.

I will have this month the first mother that I can support as midwife during
VBAC in the hospital. In my neighbourhood we are not allowed as independent
midwives to support our mothers in the hospital. At last I found a hospital
in Antwerp were they are supportive to us.
She talked to the gyn, she doesn't need to have an IV, she can stay at home
till labor is really established. She can give birth in the tub. The gyn
only comes when there is a problem.
I find it really exciting and I am very curieus how it will end.

Warm greetings
Lieve
