Could I through your messages ask how many of you opted for a normal delivery with subsequent children. I had a normal delivery, mainly because I was terrified of surgery and luckily everything was ok, but I seem to be in the minority over here.

I opted to have a vaginal delivery after by bpi baby. I found a doctor who I completely trusted, he understood my fears and concerns, monitored me very closely throughout my whole pregnancy, I delevered a beautiful baby girl 7lb 5oz with no complications and two moving arms. It was very stressful and scary though until you know everything is alright.

I had a normal delivery after my first child, mainly because I did'nt know at the time that I would be at risk of having another baby that would be injured. My doctors never said there was a chance, but my second child had no complications, thank goodness!!

I was not one of the lucky ones. We were struck twice. Melanie was born with a slight strecth of 5&6 and recovered by 8 weeks. Matthew had neuroma's, ruptures, avulsion and phrenic nerve damage. The plan was to induce early and Matthew was supposed to be 7lbs 9oz at 38 weeks. He was born weighing 10lbs 6oz. I do know a couple of people that had a very good delivery after having a bpi baby. Ya never know what life is going to give you.
