Question

What is a vaginal birth after c-section (vbac)?

Answer 1

VBAC: There is a risk of catastrophic rupture of the uterus late in subsequent pregnancies. Every case is different and you should discuss with obstetrician.

Answer 2

Talk about it...: These feelings can be normal. I recommend that you discuss your feelings openly with your partner, family & friends. Often talking about your feelings helps. If that isn't making you feel better talk to your md. Mom's of premature babies often feel guilty about the early birth - even when they did nothing wrong. If symptoms persist talk to your md and be screened for possible postpartum depression.

Answer 3

Get some help!: It is normal to feel upset, angry and sad when your pregnancy ends with birth of a premature baby. New mothers can be overwhelmed with negative emotions, and these can trigger postpartum depression. It's important to seek support, whether from friends/family, your nicu's social worker, or a trained therapist. You need to deal with the negative feelings so you can bond with and help your baby.

Answer 4

Cooking oil: While there are lots of remedies, the one that worked the best for me was cooking oil. It is edible and easily absorbed into the skin. I would apply a small dab on the nipples after nursing. Worked really well.

Answer 5

Cabbage leaves: Putting cold cabbage leaves on your breasts inside your bra may help to relieve the discomfort . It may also help if you develop mastitis which is an infection some women get while breast feeding. Even if you choose not to breast feed the cabbage leaves will help your breasts feel better as they go through the changes after giving birth. There are different opinions how long to use them 2 hours.

Answer 6

No: There is a slight increase risk of preterm labor in pregnancies conceived by ivf. Part of this is because of the risk of multiple gestations like twins and triplets. Recent studies show that even single pregnancies conceived by ivf have a slight increase risk of preterm labor. It is important to be followed closely by your doctor or cnm.

Answer 7

Many premie causes: There are many causes for prematurity including uterine stretch, hypertension, and infections. Those who are the oldest and youngest mothers are also at increased risk. As mothers who undergo ivf tend to be older and carry mor than one baby ( twins, or triplets) they can be at risk for premature delivery.

Answer 8

It depends: If you conceive with a singleton after ivf, your chance of premature baby is almost same as general population. However, if you have twin or triplets, your chance of premature delivery will be much higher. So i strongly recommend to transfer a single embryo when you have ivf.

Answer 9

Infection: Pneumonia and eye infections can occur in the baby. Pregnant women are usually screened for chlamydia during the pregnancy so that they can be treated before delivery of the baby.

Answer 10

Infant blindness: Chlamydia and gonorrhea are the number one cause of blindness in infants in countries where routine antibiotic eye ointment is not given. It is important to get tested during pregnancy to avoid this preventable problem.

Answer 11

PREGNANCY TERM: As long as you are under the care of your ob, no toxemia, or any other problems anticipated, you are in good hands! good luck !

Answer 12

Hard to say: Since your other health issues are not available for review, limited assessment is possible. Baby is near term, but upwards of 10% will require special care even if born at term. Complications of pregnancy or labor can increase the risk.About 5% of newborns have an unexpected issue at birth (defect, prematurity, illness).Most pregnancies end up in a satisfactory outcome.
