vbacs?

So I'm up in the air on this one. My doctor says I'm a great candidate for a vbac. I had a vaginal birth in 2010 and a c section in 2012. I know the risk of rupture is less then .5% but I'm still not sure! The thought of something happening to my baby bc I wanted the easier birth scares me. So any of you mommas had a vbac or know anyone that has had one and what was the outcome???

My Dr told me I'd be a good candidate for a vbac with my second child and lucky I didn't because my uterus didn't contract back and I had to get a needle right into it. I'm now pregnant with my third and am having a ceserian with this one too. I'm not trying to scare you, it's probably rare for that to happen but that was just what happened to me. Just have a good think about it.

Hmm I def. Want my husband to experience the vaginal birth. My oldest son was from a previous relationship. I feel like he was kinda jipped on the experience bc our son was breech. I guess I'll have to think about it more. Thanks for your feedback ladies :-)
