C-section

Im currently 35 weeks and will be turning 36 weeks on saturday.im getting scheduled for a c-section in 4 weeks also this is my second pregnancy my first was a c-section as well.My problem is that i dont want another c-section i tried talking to my doctor about it but hes not letting me have vaginal delivery at all. Im scared to get a c-section because i already know how it feels to have a cut on your abdomen. Now my question is if i was to go into labor or if my water breaks before my scheduled c-section and i go to the emergency room would they let me have a vaginal delivery or not?? Another question how can i have a vaginal delivery?

Yes I would find a doctor that would allow you to try a vaginal delivery first. I would of done it sooner but it is never to late to try and find someone.

You may not be able to have a vbac...  If you got pregnant less than 18 months after your first section, they could be worried about you uterus not healing entirely and risk rupture...  Also, it can depend on how you were cut.  I have an internal inverted T cut, I can't every deliver vaginally...  

Just be careful

If you're scheduled for a c section and you go into labour before that, they'll likely still do a c section anyway. If you want a vbac, find a different doctor that's willing to let you try.
