[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in a similar spot and I can tell you what NOT to say: "At least you and baby are healthy, that is all that matters!" "I know how miserable you feel not getting your ideal birth plan." --> you don't know her misery, it is hers. The worst thing people can say is anything about their own pregnancy or "I know how you feel". I would keep it vague and just listen. "I'm sorry about your birth plan. How are you feeling?" "I'm sorry you had a traumatic birth (or however she describes it, repeat words)." [/quote] This. She is a poor candidate for a VBAC because of the reason for the C. She may never get to have a vaginal birth. OP you don't have a time machine and you can't say for sure she won't have problems because of her C. [/quote]
