Has anyone had a successful vaginal delivery after 2 or more c-sections?

I'm pregnant with my third and really want to try a vaginal delivery this time, I've had two previous sections, but am meeting resistance from my OBGYN. :(

Hi, I've had 3 c-sections and currently 26 weeks, if you do a vbac it could rupture your uterus and that's why after 2 they don't want to risk your life. After 1 they consider it, but it really depends on why you had it in the first place. The truth is your safety and your babies safety is the most important thing! Good luck!

Hi. I've only had on c-section but I've had four successful v-bacs after. I had my first vbac 11months after my c-section. It is definitely possible. My personal experience is that vaginal births are easier. Maybe you should get a second opinion if your Ob-gyn isnt agreeable to your wishes(unless they're sime health risks to you or your baby). Vbacs are normal.
