Vaginal delivery

And if baby A is in the head down position, then absolutely, you know, vaginal delivery is always, in my opinion, safest for mom and safest for baby.

That's great news.

Because I know some moms, and I know we're going to get into this later on, but often we're under the impression that if you have twins, it's not even an option to have a vaginal birth.

Yeah, unfortunately, you know, I get a lot of patients in the office who kind of come in with this preconceived notion that, oh, I have to have a C-section.

And You know, it's good that we're here to kind of set the story straight, that no, you

You know, it doesn't really affect me so much because I am going to have a C-section.

It's already been scheduled.

But the reason we did that, my first baby, my first boy was a vaginal birth.

And so I did kind of come to terms with that very quickly.

I did still want a vaginal birth, which isn't very common in twin pregnancies.

But that was still my preference.

And actually, as I was going through, even with my consultant, they were very supportive of that.

But there was a lot of kind of registrars there and more junior doctors and like I almost could hear like whispering, you know, it was like they were all talking about me and no one was talking to me.

Until eventually a consultant came in and an anaesthetist came in.

So at this point, sorry, I should mention, so Selkie was twin one and she was head down, which meant I could have proceeded with a vaginal birth if I wanted.

Phelan was transverse breech.
