HI Rosalie, i would think that it stands for non elective lower uterine segment caesarean section. Anyway i just really answered that to say hi to you. I sit in the wings of this list since I've been on maternity leave and keep myself up to date and sometimes thoroughly entertained. Hope your keeping well hope to hear from you soon or maybe catch up. Oh, by the way Rachael is now 14 mths old and the love of our lives. Stay well and happy Melinda ----- Original Message ----- From: Rosalee Shaw <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 29, 2002 5:16 PM Subject: Re: [ozmidwifery] VBAC - how soon is safe?
I have a great deal of difficulty understanding your abbreviations. What's NELUCSC? EDB? I understand EDB as epidural block, but why on earth would you be planning that? please explain rosalee >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/29/02 05:12PM >>> Hi all, I am looking for info on how soon is safe after a NELUSCS to attempt a vbac. I have plenty of great pro vbac literature which I would normally support. But, this client's 1st baby was only 5 months old when the 2nd was conceived, making the EDB 14mnths after a neluscs for transverse lie/?cpd? /dilatation <4cms after 12hours of active labour. I'm sure I've read 18 mnths minimum for optimal scar healing but cannot find it in writing . Thanks, Laraine. PS, I loved the 3 Bears! -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics.
