I cried reading your story. Thank you for giving me a little more strength to go ahead with my dream.

I read it right before I had my son on January 8, 2015 and it gave me that extra boost of confidence I needed at the end of my pregnancy to keep going after my vbac!!! I’m also a size 24 and could relate to this very well! Now that I’ve reread it there’s even more I can relate too! Thanks for posting!

Meg I’m so glad you’re reading these stories now so you’ll be an even better advocate for you and your baby once you are pregnant.

It is such an incredible encouragement to me. I’m not pregnant yet, but hope to be soon, and while it is a huge dream, I’m terrified that my 22/24 body simply can’t do this the way I dream it will. I’m so worried I won’t find a size friendly provider, and that it will all far apart from there. Thank you for sharing that plus size birth is beautiful and possible!

I’m also a size 24 and had all three of my babies without a c-section. I’m very grateful for my doctors who didn’t even consider one for me.

Sam so I’m happy you were inspired by Autumn’s story! If you’re working with a size friendly provider then they will be looking out for your best interest from the start. Be sure to checkout the size friendly provider resource page linked within this article if you have yet to.

I am plus size and have PCOS. This will be my first baby and I am so scared of being intimidated into a c section. You have given me strength and courage to stick to my guns and trust my body. Also I was in total shock when I read your daughter’s name. My husband and I just decided on Adalind Elizabeth for our daughter. Just kinda furthers my thoughts that I was meant to read this article. Thank you so much for sharing.
