___________________________________________________________________________
In all the reading and research I have done, there are a few behaviors that continually reappear among women who achieve VBACs. This is not scientific, just anecdotal.
Philosophy:
A woman who accepts her personal responsibility in her own health care by educating herself while believing in her body’s ability to give birth.
Behaviors:
- Supportive husband
- Educated herself
- Supportive care provider
- No drugs whatsoever
- Refused induction
- Refused rupture of membranes
- Stayed ACTIVE and changed positions the entire labor
- Ate and drank as she wanted to
- Remained completely relaxed and therefore had plenty of energy
- TRUSTED HER BODY!
