I feel like the choice not to go in for what I felt was unnecessary testing with my R.E. was an important first step towards a successful VBAC for me. It made me feel so empowered. So far I haven't had any testing aside from the initial bloodwork. I'm seeing the midwife when I'm about 12 weeks to hear the heartbeat and check everything out. I feel so at peace about all of this.

Congrads! and good for you that you did stand up for yourself.
Personally, I don't do pelvics...... I believe that our body has a perfect design to give birth, and every pelvis is perfect...

I have seen only 2 women that could not deliver because of a pelvis 'issue' in 17 years...
sad that the medical community practices in such a way saying: that we are not designed to give birth....
