I am having one in December. Having had two naturals my midwife feels I will do fine. But I am prepared for the fact things can go wrong no matter the type of birth you choose. C-section carries many risks too!

I will be trying it when we get there, I am hoping I am not in the % that has complications but you never really know. I have a friend who attempted it and was not successful she said your best chances was to use a doula so thats what we are going to do. Her experience was horrible from what she told me but both her and the baby came out of it okay.

I had a horrible experience wtih my vbac and suffered years of pain from healing and a mom on this site sadly lost her baby from a vbac ~ I wouldnt ever risk it again or advise it ~ to dangerous!! Even if the risk % is low what if that % was you??

I am planning on having a VBAC. I have read alot of information about VBAC`s because I have been planning on having one with this pregnancy ever since I had to have a c-section last pregnancy. From what I have read there is alot more complications that may or could happen with a c-section compared to a VBAC. The statistics I have read that the chances of your uterine ruptering is about a 1.5 to 2% chance. I was really scared at first because I just heard about the scary things that could happen but after reading up about VBACs I feel quite confident and excited to be able to have this chance. I have not gone through the VBAC yet, but I will be trying everything to get and be prepared for a VBAC (Such as excersing). They have websites that will help you better understand and prepare and support you with a VBAC decision.I hope this helped.

She should check out http://www.vbac.com/ it has good information about vbacs. If she has a horizontal bikini and they did a double suture inside her chances of rupture are very slim. As for blood clots I don`t know why they wouldn`t just give her blood thinners after a c-section. They give them routinely here for 3-4 days after your section. They hurt like a damn though!

Shes scared as shes been told if she just has another C-section then theres a chance she might have to have hysterectomy if it goes wrong, she could have blood clots(her father just had a heart attack caused by blood clot) and a few other things could happen. But if she has the Normal Birth(VBAC) then her womb could irrupt through her C-section scar. So shes completely freaked out and had 4wks to make her decision! xx
