Johnathan’s Birth (Andrea’s VBAC Attempt Turned Uterine Rupture)
When we found out that we were expecting another baby, emotions were all over the place. Of course, we were happy.. but at the same time we were very scared. Scared that we might not be able to care for two children. Scared that Alex might not respond well to a new baby. Scared that… Continue reading Johnathan’s Birth (Andrea’s VBAC Attempt Turned Uterine Rupture)
Zoey’s “Birth” Story (Angela’s Inverted T CBA3C)
The story of Zoey's "birth" goes back to last summer. I was thinking about a 4th baby--I had discovered with the help of a fantastic massage therapist that surgery that I had when I was 3 days old created such tremendous scar tissue that my fully pg uterus could not be in a correct position… Continue reading Zoey’s “Birth” Story (Angela’s Inverted T CBA3C)

Lenore Calais February 22, 2011 12:42 pm 8 lbs 1 oz 20.5" I'm the sort of person who recognizes patterns. I don't have to try. I simply see them. My children are slowly teaching me that it's okay to break them. I noticed several similarities between my first two pregnancies and births. Both children were… Continue reading Lenore’s Birth Story (Bronwyn’s VBAC After a Preterm Vertical)

Avery David’s Birth Story (Cari’s J CBAC)
It's some time early morning. Why am I awake? I roll over and look at my phone. 6am. Sigh. I roll back over and notice my back has a slight ache. And then I get a light braxton hick. I find this strange because even though I have been having them, 10 minutes apart for… Continue reading Avery David’s Birth Story (Cari’s J CBAC)
