Vaginal Birth after Csection... anyone done it?

The more i think about it, the more i want a natural birth this time. Even if it does end in the trauma it ended in last time. I just KNOW there are things i'd do differently this time.

Just wondering if anyone has sucessfully had a VBAC.

Thanks xxx

good thread amy. i no we're not ttc yet, but i too have thought about this, have always said no, but i suppose i'll just see. though i don't no if the doctors think i could actually do it as after 40hours i was still 3cm, same with my mum.

would be good to hear others experiences x

Like i say though, things could be done differently next time. At first i was like NO WAY im not trying for a VBAC. But all in all, if i can do it, it will be better for me. Quicker healing time etc.

I think a lot of why i ended up with a section was because i took the epi. I'm just curious how it would pan out if i stuck it out more and had more encouragement. Things only started to go really wrong after the epi.
