What kind of birth did you have? Was it what you wanted? If you could go back and re-do things, would you? What would you change?
I had my daughter vaginally. The only thing I would change is how I handled labor. If I had known that she was in the posterior presentation (face up rather than face down – towards the spine), I would have done more physical movements and variations to get her to turn around. Since I did not know, my labor was much longer and more painful than it would have otherwise been.
With my son, I would have asked for an ultrasound several weeks prior to 38.5. I found out then that he was sideways, though I had been feeling his feet and head in my ribs for a while before then. If I had known sooner, perhaps I would have been able to get him to turn, and wouldn’t have had a c-section.
