Mine failed due to my waters being broken for more than 24hrs and not getting past 7cms. I was being induced but Stella turned and was in a really odd position, there was no way that she was coming out naturally.

I would definately try again for a VBAC, but I very much doubt I will be having anymore babies ]]> Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:36:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=894506&title=failed-vbacs#894506 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=893882&title=failed-vbacs#893882 Author: ElfsMum

my VBAC failed due to water leaking too long and induction was classed as failure to progress - it was classed as an emergency Ceasarian although never felt like that.

I was a little sad as part of the reason for going for #4 for me was for Dh to expereince a VB (first two not his bio and they were naturals)

But Elodie needed to come out and she was no where near coming out VB (head still way up even after 7 hours induction)

IF i was going to have another baby i would try for another VBAC even after 1 elective and 1 emergency ceasarian. I know my body can do it as first 2 was a natural. ]]> Mon, 11 Jan 2010 21:39:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=893509&title=failed-vbacs#893509 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=893139&title=failed-vbacs#893139 Author: neivaD

I also sustained a large tear during my second c-section as well as having a bandles ring during labour and major wound infection. It is possible, it just increases the risks of rupture slightly compared to just two surgical scars.]]> Mon, 11 Jan 2010 17:24:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=893139&title=failed-vbacs#893139 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=893130&title=failed-vbacs#893130 Author: jack_&_charli

mine failed because charli was posterier and her head was flexed. everytime i pushed, she came down but would pop back up again and then her heartrate started going all over the place.

i would definately try again, but i'm not allowed as i got a large tear to my uterine wall during the c-section ]]> Mon, 11 Jan 2010 17:16:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=893130&title=failed-vbacs#893130 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=893125&title=failed-vbacs#893125 Author: neivaD

Yes my first one did fail. My son was posterior and in the military position. My waters had broken and he was stuck.
I did try again and gave birth easy as about 14 months after my second c-section :)

There could have been so many other factors as to why your vbac didnt happen, I am not so sure I would buy the funky pelvis story to be honest. I was told the same thing and told I could never ever birth my babies normally, that there must be something wrong with my pelvis that meant that my babies were malpositioned and wouldnt come out. I now know 100% that that is bs!]]> Mon, 11 Jan 2010 17:14:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=893125&title=failed-vbacs#893125 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=891055&title=failed-vbacs#891055 Author: mamanee

My VBAC failed because of failure to progress past 6CM, his head wouldn't come down, my epidural failed, the pethidine failed and I'm a big wussy who couldn't handle it any longer.

Afterwards the midwife said my pelvis might be a funny shape and he just could not come out naturally.    Stubborn wee boy anyway as I was 10 days overdue!

Why did your VBAC fail and would you try again?]]> Sat, 09 Jan 2010 20:55:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=30872&PID=891055&title=failed-vbacs#891055
