Had a successful VBAC! !

Ladies delivery: 40 weeks, went in and had a membrane sweep (already dilated to a 3) and then later that evening my contractions started...husband got home about 4 hrs later...we went to the hospital and went to triage to see if I was truly in labor, and sure enough I was! By the time I got admitted to the hospital I was at 5.5 cm, then at 7 cm got my epidural, and relaxed...Dr came in and broke my water and then we just had to wait for baby! Then I made it to 10 cm and pushed for 20 min and she made her appearance! So much easier than my emergency c section! After delivery I didn't realize u needed to empty my bladder and hemmoraged about 500cc of blood, but ended up fine! Stayed in hospital 2 days and am home and happy!
