During my labor a code c: due to baby's heart rate, then the heart rate went up and we went back to the room to try pushing there. The heart rate went down again, then i had to have a vacuum. The doctor was good in that she kept telling me what is going to happen next no: I was open to changes, but Code C to VAVD was not expected Informed of next steps Yes: wish I could know who will be my attending provider would be: was happy it was female
