If she has access to email, there are a few good email lists run by/for VBAC women. She hasn’t given herself much time to address the issues surrounding vbacs though...37 weeks is leaving it a bit late to work through issues. Her best bet is to get a doula or a midwife who will help her get over the hurdles/issues from the last birth which WILL surface during the labour of this one. If she was an induced woman resulting in an emerg cs the refrase the term to a failed induction rather than a failure to progress...let her have the chance to let go of 'responsibility' for 'failing' by phrasing things differently. Keep referring to the last birth as a caesarean birth not caesarean section (HATE THE TERM!!!) reassure her that each birth paves the way for the next and her bosy will know what to do this time if she is supported and has the chance to gain trust in herself. Reading vbac birth stories can be good -or bad depending on how emotionally vulnerable she is. AS she has no time to really work threw things at this point in her pregnancy, information on normal birth and positive reinforcments are the best thing to do... www.cares-sa.org.au www.birthrites.org www.vbac.com There are lots of sites dedicated to vbac.

Hello, I would like to ask you all a question, a lady who is currently 37 weeks pregnant and lives in QLD would like to try for a VBAC.... I am looking for any information as she would really benefit from a support group as she mentioned to me that she felt like she had failed because she had an emerg c/section with her first baby. Any information will be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Carol. -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics.
