Any opinions on VBAC?

Question

I had my first child in 2015 by csection for emergency reason. Im pregnant again, due in a month.. im stuck between choosing another csection or to go natural and give birth. Has anyone of you had a csection and got pregnant again? what did you choose to do? Which was better another csection or natural birth? Im just worry and want to read other people experiences.

Answer

I had an emergency c section in 2011. Took me weeks to recover fully and at least 2 weeks to be able to walk standing up straight. I had my son in 2015 as a vbac BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE he was born very smoothly and I was walking around as soon as my epidural wore off. I had a ton more energy and was able to take better care of him since I wasn’t in much pain

Answer

My scheduled c section was fantastic. The risk of a vbac was too much for me.

Answer

I honestly don’t know much about VBAC’s .....I had a natural birth with the 1st, emergency c-Section with the second, and I’m hoping for a scheduled C-Section with this one. Even though my emergency C-Section was scary AF. I’m honestly not interested in doing all that painful pushing like with my 1st birth..... but we shall see come April I guess :)

Answer

I had a scheduled csection in 2014 due to a very large baby- 10lbs 7oz. I was planning on vbac if this baby was an average size, but I'm expecting another giant.  I have a csection scheduled for as week before my due date.  My doctors said that a vbac is best if successful, the concern is having an unsuccessful vbac and needing more interventions and having complications.  I was told that I was not a good candidate for induction since my first baby never dropped into position.  You have to assess what you are most comfortable with.
Why did you have the first csection?

Answer

My mother had a vaginal birth in the hospital for her first, a nonscheduled c-section later discovered to have been unnecessary (she was pissed), and finally she had me at home with a midwife and had a very successful VBAC at home. They filmed the whole thing starting when she went into labor, and she spent most of it baking a cake “for my birthday.” Then a few hours later, I was popping out. She said it was her best birthing experience.
