Yes, You Can Have Natural Birth After A C-Section Baby

Hi, my name is Kristie and Yes!!! You can have a C-section baby and have a natural delivery afterward. I am living proof. On March 7, 1993 I had a son, born by C-section because I was no longer dilating and unable to give natural birth. One year later on March 22, 1994 I delivered my baby daughter naturally. My Mom says I might have used too much pain medicine the first time and that caused the complications, so the second time I had a lot less pain medicine and an epidural instead, combined with my determination to deliver my baby naturally. Since the pain and agony I suffered from the c-section caused me less time and devotion toward my first baby, I made a concerted effort to avoid this from happening again the second time. Keep in mind however, that the epidural (the needle that is inserted into your spine) is a very uncomfortable, horrible experience. It’s very relieving once the specialists get the needle inserted though… and delivery is a snap.
