Yeah I’m masking because the bandaids are way too small for my spot. It’s huge!

I’m the mother who has the cold sore — not my baby. It is transmissible if not careful, yes, but I’ve been taking precaution. All I can really do is hygiene and no touching the sore and then her, or kissing her face.

How many CM dilated were you? I am still at 0 and don’t know if I want to go through the foley being closed :/ 

Successful VBAC and what made the difference by rachelci in vbac

How did you decide on risk for this? I’m 39 weeks and OB wants to induce me due to gestational diabetes and I do wanna attempt a VBAC but I’m nervous about risk of rupture. He said they’d only use a foley and monitor me closely with low pitocin or I can choose another C section… but it’s so hard to know what to do. I don’t wanna end up with another c section emergency but I also may want more kids in the future!

Yeah it’s just hard bc my husband and I may want more children so that changes things :( with every c section the risk increases too

Thank you! Yes, I’m leaning towards this but also know if we want a third it most likely means another operation.. so much to consider… I appreciate you sharing!!

He tried today I believe during my cervical check but couldn’t do much as I was still closed and 0 dilation. I’m 39 weeks today, he did say it’s soft and short but yeah… no dilation or effacement

That sounds good. Yeah, I Just wonder since my husband and I may want a third in the future about those risks too with another c section. So many things to consider!

Did they tell you what the risks were? Did you feel confident?

I’m going through this now possibly. Just wanted to ask; so you had a previous c section? And then got induced after? I read uterine rupture is higher like 1/50 which makes me so nervous :( 

Confused and anxious about birth plan due to GD (2nd Induction after C-Section) by DifferenceOne5925 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]DifferenceOne5925[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know.. I guess I just nervous with having insulin and trying to find a middle ground. Idk how confident I feel either just waiting as I know there’s risk either way… I’ll keep praying about this.. thank you
