Successful VBAC at 38w6 days 🥰

Lauren • 8/17/19 💙 3/22/21💕

We had a repeat csection scheduled for 3/24 but if I went into labor on my own I was going to try for a VBAC. I was induced with my last pregnancy due to complications and did notttttt want another induction lol

I had been having irregular contractions the past few days. Some Braxton Hicks. Some that took my breath away but not consistent. It wasn’t until 6pm on Monday 3/22 that contractions started becoming way intense. I labored on the phone with my mom while my husband fed our 18 month old and got him a bath. My sister came over and my husband and I headed to the hospital. Got to my room a little after 8pm and was 6cm. Checked me again 30 min later, 8cm then my water broke. Was ready to push around 9pm. Charlotte Annela made her appearance at 11:04pm.

8lbs 10oz

22 1/2 inches

Zero time for pain meds, no epidural. This girl was so ready to come earth side lol 2nd degree tear and sore from back labor but I’m doing okay otherwise.

The craziest most amazing experience ever 🥰
