I was just going thru the expecting parents message board of the other months. I found out Archie to be very active and suggestive. She has been a boon and has been able to answer all the expecting moms very satisfactorily. Whos Archie??? Does anyone know??? Blessing in Disguise...... archie replied. Shilpa,
I read your Cesarean reason and got a little confused on rush exerted. Cord can be seen during or before labor and one would have asked to have your NST each a day or keep track of movement, much wiser over Cesarean.

Nonetheless, if your OB is different and you think is smart, you trust in this OB then talk about VBAC. I suspect you said that your cesarean was because of expected macrosomia for baby and cord around the neck and has a bikini lower incision.

In both pregnancies of mine, I played a huge role as OB for myself though I think my very first OB (first pregnancy) and last OB (last pregnancy) were kind and did not have problem me choosing my options and they respected my readings of OB/GYN over 1.5 decades.
Yes, I am Microbiologist and have been reading OB/GYN from since I was teenager:-)
Archie momtob replied. Hi Shilpa,

Archie, probably Archana is her name, has been a great contributer to all the message boards especially ttc (trying to conceive) ones and others too. She is I think a microbiologist by profession and seems to know a lot about pregnancy and other gynaecological problems.

As you said, she has been a great boon to us all. She has had her second son recently, you can read her birth story in Nov 2006 board.

God bless her.
