I think women who wont even consider trying VBACs are lame. There. I said it. Fame away.

OP here: I meant to say flame. And I wasnt talking about a specific breach baby. Obviously if Dr INSISTS that's one thing. But if mom just doesn want to try it (which is the case in PLENTY of instances) then I think the woman is lame. Why wouldnt you eve WANT to TRY? If you CANT - different story. But if you're unwilling to try, you're lazy/lame.
[ Reply | Options ]But you don't take into account the woman who labored for 40 hours before her emergency c-section last time. My friend couldn't face going through that again - the disappointment, being in poor physical shape for surgery so having a longer recovery, et It's so stupid to make judgments like this.
[ Reply | Options ]that's exactly the woman I'm talking about. The woman I know who did it insisted on being induced 2 wks before her due date b/c she was "done" being pg. Then she wondered why she was in labor for 20 hrs and the baby wouldnt come. And then she had to h had to have c-sec. Now is just "sked" her 2nd c-sect b/c she doesnt want to go thru that again; and I think that's lame. Maybe I should have explained that whole part of the story.

ok- let's pretend you have some semblance of intelligance and/or emapathy: if the mom had a c-section the first time (and it wasn't elective), the chances are that her labor was very difficult and quite possibly traumatic. wouldn't it make sense that she might want to stick with the safest and less scary option? you sound like a beyotch. signed, mom who had two kids without drugs but doesn't judge!

When I ride in a taxi cab with my DC I:
- Use a carseat
- Buckle him/her in his/her own seat
- Hold him/her on my lap
- I'd never ride in a taxi with my DC, it's much too dangerous!
