Good OB doctor anyone?
Well I had a c-section with Ansley and so I decided I wanted to do a VBAC (basically give birth the regular way). However the doctor that I went to did not allow any VBACs at all. So she told me to get some consultations. I went to one guy yesterday. He is a go for letting me try the VBAC pending everything seems to be in order. I mean if the baby is going to 9 + lbs again then I'm gonna have to have another c-section cause chances are I won't be able to get it out. Ansley was literally too big to come out the right way. So anyway I do like him but he is only in favor of doing 3 c-sections. Well I want to 5 kids (I mean you know we might get to 3 and say that's enough. Not sure what Heavenly Father has is store for us but I don't want to be limited by c-sections. I am going to see another doctor tomorrow to get yet another opinion. So we shall see. Really though if they say I can only have three kids but then I get pregnant again what are they going to do....hopefully it will be safe enough (scar tissue not too bad and such) to have another baby. I got to see the heart beat. Levin was sad he wasn't there. I really thought it would just be a consultation and then he was like lets take a look and see if all is well. Cute little alien. ;) A bit depressing I'm not as far along as they first predictied. I'm not all that surprised cause the ultrasound with Ansley put her due later also. So now my new due date is March 1, 2010. and I'm only 8 wks 4 days instead of 10 wks.

I am thinking of trying a VBAC with our next one as well so I am anxious to see how it goes for you! I am happy about your new due date because March 1st is my BDAY!!! Im just sayin. I hope you find a great DR good luck on everything! How is the pregnancy so far?
i had c-section with kalei and when i went in the doc said that he has done up to 6 c-sections on a lady... i only want 4 and he said that is completely safe. i had to have another one with kamaile so i'm set with c-sections now. he did amazing on my scar too... way better than my first doc... i say shop around!
Tell Levin not to feel too bad about missing the heartbeat. William was my companion thru Matthew's pregnacy and just told Eric what he missed. :) Good luck searching.
The same thing happened to me where they told me I wasn't as far along as I thought I was. It was very depressing to "redo" a month in the first trimester! But oh it is fun to see that little heart beat! I used to get all worked up before an appointment until I heard the heart beating and knew all was well! I hope you're feeling okay!
Hey Amanda. I hope you find a doctor who is willing to work with you. I am kind of worried about the same thing for the next pregnancy. How come some doctors are totally against a VBAC, when others are completely willing to let you try??? I don't understand.
hey girl--congratulations officially! My birthday is a day after Anna's on the 2nd of March and it's always been a great day in my life--whatever day will be the best for her though!!
