So originally my Dr. and I had discussed scheduling my c-section for 12/17, which was perfect becuase I'd be out of the hospital on the 21st and Christmas would carry on as normal. NOW, I get a call from her last night, that the hospital is booked for scheduled c-sections for 12/16, 12/17, and 12/20, so I am scheduled for 12/21. This means that unless I check out early, I'll be released on Christmas day. I am so sad. I refuse to stay past Christmas Eve, but even that stinks. And if for any reason they say the baby or I need to stay the extra day (which they did when I had Scotty) I will miss Christmas morning with my son. I am just so upset.
The fact that everything that my DH is doing lately is completely annoying me adds to my mood. I just want to run away.

But what is the medical reason for needing a scheduled c/s? I mean, is that you had one before so they are telling you that you need one again?
Karen- don't give up on a VBAC. There are so many ways to help your chances.

Having a repeat C doesnt bother me. I told my doc that I will have a VBAC if labor progresses quickly. They told me I have to be in bed monitored the entire time I am in labor in case something happens... I was in labor with Emma in bed for 9 hours, complete torture which I really dont feel like going through again. If I go into labor and get to the hospital and am 4-5CM and going 1CM an hour Ill try the VBAC but otherwise Im a canidate for a repeat. I dont want an epi so thats out the window. I have 12 more weeks to see what happens.
