I wasn't able to decline/postpone anything with my VBAC.

I had to have an IV because I had GBS and needed the antibiotics throughout laboring. I wanted to delay cord clamping/cutting and have him on my chest as soon as he was born but neither of those two things happened because I got chorioamnionitis so they needed to get him out and off to check him asap. I got to see him for a couple of seconds before he was taken to the NICU.
