Considering VBAC !

How close are your pregnancies? If they are super close I wouldn’t recommend it at all just simply because you’re at a high risk of rupture rather than waiting for awhile. I hope the best for you none of my OBs would allow it for me.

All the medical professionals and doulas I’ve spoken to say go for it, the medical community has come a long way and has made it safer.

I had a successful vbac and my daughters are 27 months apart. I did a lot more yoga with my second pregnancy and also was induced at 39 weeks instead of waiting until I was almost 42 weeks so my baby was smaller the second time. They still had to use forceps but it was a better recovery experience than my first birth and pushing 3 hours and ending up in c section.

I’m in the same boat. My hospital (which also houses the family practice) has a special doctor that will see me closer to the due date to do some tests and physical exam to determine whether I’m a good VBAC candidate. I don’t remember what type of doctor it is, my OB will set it up for me. Maybe ask your OB if that’s something your practice offers. (My last pregnancy was Dec 2023.)
