Vaginal birth after C section VBAC

Has anyone ever regretted having a VBAC? I had one with my 2nd and it was a great birth but it took far longer to feel normal again than it did after the C section and just thinking ahead to possible future pregnancies. Would love to hear your thoughts!

Has anyone had a successful water birth after caesarean? My midwife said they can’t say no if I want to try for that but it’s against medical advice. 🩷

I haven’t conceived yet however I was hoping to hear positive HBAC stories as considering having our second child after 4 years. Just wanted to get some positive stories as my first birth wasn’t great and I feel a little anxious around it. Thanks 💕

Hiya, I am pregnant with my third. First was natural, baby was over 10pound and had prolapse and lost a lot of blood. Second baby was planned c section due to baby also growing big which when they arrived they was also over 10lb Now having third baby I am so 50/50 if I want to go natural or another planned c section. I found recovery with my first took longer as I was in a lot of pain with prolapse. Also been informed (even tho there’s a low chance) you can suffer with uterine rupture which scares me slightly I was wondering if anyone has been in my shoes or have experience both and what labour you chose the third time around. Also how did you find recovery from second c sections ?? Would love to hear peoples stories and experiences ❤️ Much appreciated Xx

Hey everyone, I’m currently 25 weeks pregnant with my second. Just had an antenatal appointment and I mentioned that I thought he may be breech because all the movement I feel is very low in my pelvis. The midwife confirmed he is breech, but wasn’t concerned and told me not to worry yet, he’s still small and has time and room to turn. She suggested acupuncture from 30-32 weeks if he’s still breech, as it can aid with him turning and provided some resources, like spinning babies etc. I’m just wondering if anyone else had this experience and still proceeded to have a successful vbac? Was there anything you did to assist with the baby turning? I feel like my biggest concern this time is baby’s position, considering I feel like my first being posterior contributed to my labour failing to progress, but having a breech baby would be even worse!
