Hi! Congratulations on baby number 2. A VBAC is a personal choice. My first was a c-section and it devastated me. I had not even considered it a possibility, and when, after two days of labor and stalling at 9.5, they decided on a c-section. Good thing, though - she was HUGE! Anyways, with baby number 2, I was determined to have a VBAC. nd it was awesome! I spent the entire pregnancy reading every single book on the library shelf about VBACs, which range from anti-medicine rants to objective, informative guides. I found a good, understanding doctor. We induced a couple of days early to make sure he didn't get too big like his sister (she was 17 days late). The doctor was helpful and understanding, I had a good support system, and after pushing for 35 minutes, I had a baby boy in my arms. It was the best experience of my life - my whole family was there, even the big sister. I got to hold him, and be present when every one else held him - it was like a party in the room while they cleaned me up! NOT lying in a recovery room by myself for two hours while everyone else held my baby before me. I just can't tell you how great it was. And I plan on doing it again! I will tell you, though - I'm assuming you experienced some outrageous pain when you were first made to get out of bed after the surgery? I had thought nothing could compare to that. And this didn't - but I was shocked to discover that my hoo-hoo hurt for a week after - sitting, standing, moving - it was a great challenge. Well worth it though! I was proud to be waddling around, sitting on cushions. Do waht you think is best for you. Start with some reading, and even check out some forums, like on BabyCenter.com. You can just read about what other women are doing. Good luck to you!
