Family complete 🤍 Welcoming our little blessing… 𝑭𝒊á𝒊𝒏-𝑳𝒖𝒏𝒂 𝑺𝒄𝒂𝒏𝒍𝒂𝒏 Irish Gaelic pronounced ‘fee-awn’ which means ‘wild’ our very own wild moon has joined the family & we couldn’t be happier 🌿🌙 @scandalous_13 #newbaby #babygirl #grateful #familycomplete #scorpio #novemberbaby #vbac #vbacsuccess #vbacbaby #vbacwithoutfear
One whole week of loving you Fiáin Luna 🤍🌙 Slowly saying goodbye to the belly that housed you, in moments finding myself wanting to keep it forever just to hold space for what we shared these last 9 months – so grateful 🤍 #postpartumbody #postpartum #1weekold #babygirl #recovery #grateful #gratitude
Despite the vast bump & it is HUGE …Still made room for some birthday dinner didn’t I?! @scandalous_13 is always so disappointed as I rarely leave him scraps 😬 A rare meal alone & we ate like kings & Queens @pink_lettuce_chester Now to soak in clary sage & enjoy my 32 years on earth ( plus Vat) 🫶🏻 Thanks for the birthday wishes xx
A VBAC success story There’s hope 🤍 our special moment knowing we did it – V for victory & VBAC 🙌 For those that follow me know I previously had an emergency c section – it was not my plan & I found the recovery really really tough, it wasn’t just the initial few weeks – I later had a herniated disc & tremendous weakness. This time round I was determined to deliver avoiding a c section. The hurdles you come across as a VBAC patient can be challenging, age being one factor! sometimes you feel like you’re saying the same thing over & in fact you are in order to get the desired outcome- repetition & research are essential! Get used to being a broken record! I had two risk factors against me delivering vaginally. 1. My age 2. Previous c section ( rupturing & other complications) Luckily I chose a hospital that have a passionate team for VBAC & also more importantly actually listen to their patients – of course they have to give you stats & their professional opinion – no one wants negligence on their hands but what they did offer us was space & support, they avoided pressure & they knew I was well versed on the topic, which in turn allowed us to have open conversations vs accepting a professional opinion & nothing else. Dialogue is key – educate yourself! Be informed! You can’t expect the outcome you want without delving deep into the world of risk, pros & cons & of course success! So would I opt for a C section or a vaginal birth now experiencing both? Hands down a vaginal birth 🙌 So to all those families out there wanting the same … it’s possible! It’s achievable, you just have to be intuitive & kind to your body & to the potential outcome. To the team at Arrowe Park who supported with no judgement just hope & optimism, thank you! U allowed us to manifest the best birth outcome without pressing & over medicalising! I hope you have many more women with successful vbacs & this post generates eyes on the subject but also your success as individuals as well as team players – you’re an incredible bunch of Midwives & doctors! You made it happen – WE made it happen – eternally grateful 🙏🤍 #vbac #vbacsuccess #vbacwithoutfear #arroweparkhospital
