Not a VBAC or a cesarean, but I thought this was encouraging for all the mamas worried about baby size and it does mention specifically that she did not have a "c-section" and had a drug-free birth as well. And her first was average sized.

Awesome...  But I'm wondering if they reported it long and it was suppose dto say that she pushed for 15 minutes, not labored??  If she was in labor only 15mins how close was she to the hospital?  Or was she induced??

I wonder about the 15 minute labor, too and I'm wondering if that's just how long it was from transition to birth or if she just knew that she has super fast labors and went in with the first contraction? If it WAS an induction, then she was clearly a perfect candidate O_o I wouldn't say anything to a woman inducing a nearly 14lb baby with a result of a 15 minute labor!

Oh Wow... she is a soldier for real.. this is encouraging for me.  My dr tried to suggest a c-section for this next birth, but I just suggested a little firmer that I wanted try for natural... If that baby came out.. All babies are meant and can to come out vaginally if there is no urgent medical need.....
