VBAC after two C-sections?

Question

is this a thing? my first daughter, ten years ago was breech and after a failed aversion, I delivered her via C-section, my son, 9years ago was a scheduled vbac and my cervix wouldn't dilate past 6cm so after 36 hours of active labor no progression from my cervix....I had another C-section...... does anyone have a similar situation that delivered naturally the 3rd time? it's been over 9 years since my last child....???

Answer

My dr won’t even let me try the third time, she was completely for it with the second. Ask your dr. If you have the same one from each pregnancy they will know if it is safe for you.

Answer

I had 2 natural and then 2 emergency ( 9 weeks prem) I just gave birth 5 month ago I was determinant to have vbac even found a dr who was willing BIGGEST mistake of my life and all I got was afterwards was not recommended after 2 c sections. I got my waters broke boy it was painful as I was 36 weeks and cervix was high and not dilated then they gave me p drip midwife said I looked more in pain than monitor was showing they had me waiting 4 hours then told me to push as they said I was 9cm I told them it didn’t feel right and I couldn’t push they said it was normal it’s because it was so long ago since I gave birth naturally I said no I wanted a epidural they said no as I was nearly there 3 hours went by pushing the pain was so intense and constant then contraction and throwing up on top   Dr came to me to find I was only 4cm and my previous scar had started to tear rushes in for surgery it took 45 mins to get epidural in and 15 mins later I could still feel the pain on one side I thought I was dying they had to knock me out let me say recovery was hell and I know this because I had 2 previous sections and I was well by 4 weeks not this time 12 weeks it took as I had gone through natural labour baby started to  engage then baby was pulled back up through pelvis when cut open then had infection   Then found out they had stitches my stomach muscles in with stitches on left side had to wait 7 weeks for them to dissolve before I could move properly biggest mistake ever I should have listened to all the I wouldn’t if I were u

Answer

I don't have any experience to share but am in a similar boat - 3 previous c sections but last one was 8 years ago. considering a vba3c which my OB is willing to let me try under very specific circumstances. 1. must go to the hospital as soon as labour begins; 2. must have an epidural in case emergency surgery is required; 3. Absolutely no augmentation or induction of labour - any failure to progress will result in another c section; 4. cannot go past 39 weeks.
I've done a fair amount of research on risk of uterine rupture with multiple previous c-sections. I still haven't made up my mind or not but here's what I've put together in case it helps. Just a note that the fact that you failed to progress the second time limits your chances for a successful vbac quite a bit.
