vbac

I'm 22 weeks..as I'm getting closer to my due date july 12 ,I'm getting more nervous about having a vbac..I really don't want a repeat c section and my doctor said I could have a vbac..I just want to make the safest choice..my c section was done in 2011 only because I had a large hernia and they didn't think I could push but I've had 2 vignal pregnacies in 2005 and 2007..I'm just afraid this time around...any advice

My best friend just had an extremely successful vbac and she was so happy. She said it feels amazing compared to a c section. And she was walking around an hour after it which takes a lot longer w the c section :) good luck Im sure u will do great!

I'm due July 13th and I'm trying a vbac. I've found a lot of things on vbac online and from talking to people. I'll just make sure I go to the hospital as soon as the contractions start so that I can monitored there. I'm hoping everything goes well. Do your research and make up your mind based on that not on fear. But whatever you choose will be the best thing for you. Good luck.

I had a cesarean in 2009. I am pregnant now & plan to have another c-section. My doctor seemed to think that a c-section is safer after having one. He did leave the choice up to me but, after looking up what could happen. I decided against v-bac. Buuut, I also know some moms who had successful v-bacs. I guess its up to you & how your doctor feels about it :)
