[quote=Anonymous]Since you have a desire for a vaginal birth, i would make the commitment to go that route now and give it everything I've got because once you're in the VBA2C situation, it's a lot more difficult to find a supportive provider and the risks are higher. It sounds like you click well with your OB on a personality level but he doesn't sound like a VBAC expert, to be honest. 10% based on the baby not being out after 2.5 hours of pushing? I don't think that's fair - the pelvis is much more flexible after the first child, you were a FTM and pushing for 2+ hours is within the realm of normal, and there are things you can do to try to not have a bigger baby next time (similar diet to the GD one). I'd say find a practice with the highest VBAC success rate in your area. Fairfax is not the place to deliver for a VBAC. VHC is supposedly the most VBAC friendly place in NoVA but I didn't find them to be very natural friendly. Personally, I'd make the commute to GW. [/quote]
