VBAC at Shady Grove?

[Anonymous]

I had a C-section with my daughter after a grueling 33-hour induced labor and she was 9 pounds and six ounces but I'm holding on to the slim hope that I can do VBAC. Has anyone had experience with VBACs at Shady Grove? Also, are there things you didn't like about SG?

I don't know, sorry -- but I wanted to suggest ICAN as a potential resource for you:

Good luck!

OP here. The site was very useful. Thanks!

I, too, would love to hear the answer to this question. I had a C-section at SG 3 years ago and I am now due with my second in Feb. I want to try VBAC but I'm slightly traumatized by experience last time. Because my water had broken and they had to put me on pitocin I wasn't able to move from the bed and I hated being stuck there. Also last time they were still building the new mother/baby suites so I had to share a room. I would love to hear about the new rooms as well!

I'm in the same position -- due in February, induced by pitocin, and horrified that I'll be in the 1% of VBACers who end up with a ruptured uterus.
