Here is what a student had to say about her experience after taking my VBAC class:

” …We came out energized, ready to take on anything, and feeling so connected.  I was positively giddy!…”

“We took Sharon’s VBAC class this weekend and I have to tell her (and all of you) you how much my partner and I thoroughly appreciated it.  We came out energized, ready to take on anything, and feeling so connected.  I was positively giddy!  When we got home we decided to go out to dinner w/ our son to celebrate.  He asked what we were celebrating and I said, “Saying goodbye to the old birth and welcoming the new one!”

I have talked to friends about my difficulties w/ son’s birth but none of them have really understood.  As well-meaning as they are, they just can’t get past the whole “you have a healthy baby” syndrome.  I’ve been ‘listening’ to ICAN for a while now and have absorbed so much knowledge and encouragement, it’s truly been wonderful.  But to be in a room w/ others who *really get* what I’m feeling, *really get* why I’m feeling the way I do, *really get* why I have to cry when I speak of my son’s birth day – it was life-changing in such a good way.  I feel like I can move on now and embrace this new baby and truly prepare for its birth.  I’m sure I’ll still have moments of sadness and loss when I think of my son’s birth day, but I don’t think it’ll weigh me down as it used to.  What a release!  I feel a thousand pounds lighter!”
