| |  VBA2C experienced Midwife in Brisbane
I have now had 2 CS. The first one I went into premature labour at 28 weeks with twins, I was 19, told I needed a CS, so just said ok.
I was so prepared for a natural, drug free labour with my second baby, but ended up at 9cm getting a CS. (Head was transverse and I was not progressing, even when using Syntosin). After over 24 hours of full on contractions all my rational thoughts went out the window and I just said "whatever". I am so dissapointed now and I cry every time I read about a seccessful natural or VBAC birth.
I really need someone in Brisbane that can get me my natural birth for my next baby (I am not pregnant yet). I am really happy with the Royal Womens, but I keep hearing, from various staff, that I'll have a hard time finding someone who will do a VBA2C for me.
Has anyone had a VBA2C at the Royal in Brisbane? Or know of a very experienced doula/midwife who can almost guarantee (I know there's no real guarantee) me a natural birth?
Thanks so much.

Andrea (on the HMA's big list) herself has had a home VBA2C and I am quite sure she has supported them too.
