I was so glad when I ended up having a vaginal birth, I was terrified of the thought of surgery! Thank you for sharing this incredible story. This is empowering and beautiful. I hope that all women who have c-section's have a chance at a VBAC for their second, if they want it. Women deserve to feel empowered.

It's so encouraging to the many other women out there who might be told today that they cannot have a vaginal delivery after C-section. I'm mostly impressed at the detail you recall after so many years - like it happened yesterday. That's a testament to the indelible experience birth truly is! What a great story to read.

It is nice to hear of any type of VBAC today, with so many hospitals banning them. I had a VBAC with my second son in 2006. It was in the hospital, and even though there were things that I was not happy about, the overall experience was great-so much better than a C-section, and my recovery time was wonderful- I felt better after 3 weeks with the VBAC than I did after 12 weeks with the C-section. Hopefully there will be a shift in the medical community and more and more doctors and hospitals will support VBAC's. Great story.
