2nd baby- C-section or Vback?

Question

I am pregnant with baby #2 and my first baby I had a planned c-section. I am curious to hear if other mothers have had a natural birth with their 2nd baby or stuck with having a c-section?

Answer

VBAC! VBAC! VBAC! 😂 I maaaay be a little passionate about them. Having my third HBAC in the fall ❤️❤️❤️ healthier for you and for baby. An OB will check your scars to make sure you’re good to go ☺️ They don’t ever recommend repeat cs unless medically necessary where I am 😁 Best of luck momma. You got this!!!!

Answer

If a vbac is safe, I'd definitely opt for it, especially if you might end up wanting a 3rd baby. My 3rd baby was a c section and I really wanted a vbac because my vaginal births were way easier  (recovering with not only a baby, but a toddler, is tough) unfortunately I got preeclampsia so I ended up in another c section, but I would definitely choose the vbac if possible.

Answer

I'm not a candidate for VBAC due to my pelvis not being the correct shape. 
It's something you'll need to talk to your OB about. From what I read on here, sometimes OBs are stubborn about VBACs. You might* find yourself switching OBs if it's something you're serious about.

Answer

I had a VBac and it was literally the best descision I ever made! I had a planned C-section with my first because she was breech. But I did go into labor on my own and dialated so my dr had no issue with me trying for a vbac. I didn’t think my C-section recovery was hard at all. But OMG the vaginally recovery was 100 times easier!!
