It's 10pm here, and I think my waters have just broken. I was getting little warm spurts every couple of minutes, although they seem to have stopped for now.
Even though I was desperate to go into labour, this isn't a great sign for me. I'm trying for a VBAC. My last birth was a caesarean, 3 days after my waters broke. I never went in labour or had any contractions, not even after a pitocin induction on day 3. As it turns out, DS was 10lbs 12oz and had an asynclitic head that was pushing sideways and never went down into my pelvis. I'm a little freaked that history is repeating itself.
Please send me some labour vibes. I'm excited that I'll probably get to meet my LO soon, but I really would prefer to avoid another c/section.
I'm off to relax with a RRL tea and hope that things get moving.

I'm worried about a repeat too. But I know this LO is in better position [not posterior], so hopefully he'll get his head where it needs to be....
