<x-tad-bigger>Hi</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>I have just come in the door from supporting at another wonderful birth, which was a successful vbac.</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>The woman had made a well informed choice to aim for a vbac and not a repeat cesar, however she experienced the usual normal anxiety of anyone having a vaginal birth compounded with lack of confidence because she didn’t get there last time.</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>Well we worked through those issues slowly and gently, over an hour and a half she pushed her baby into the world – a gorgeous baby girl with a lovely head of dark curly hair.</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>The midwife was lovely, gentle, positive, calm, quiet and unobtrusive.</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>The dad was great and got into trouble a couple of times – I felt sorry for him – he was crestfallen because he was trying to do his best.</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>The woman was so pleased with herself at having achieved what she wanted to achieve a natural active birth with no drugs, no intervention and a fine healthy baby.</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>She didn’t have any colostrum after the cesar and was worried – but after this normal birth we got the baby on and the baby looked very contented and relaxed as I left.</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>And I have come home with another big smile on my face satisfied in the knowledge that when a woman puts her mind to it and no one stands in her way she can do anything can’t she?</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>A great experience to start the day.</x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger> </x-tad-bigger>
<x-tad-bigger>Warm hug to all</x-tad-bigger>
