Any mommas out there who was able to give a natural birth after having a cesarean? I'm pregnant with my second baby and…

Definitely do what you think is best if you want to do a VBAC I recommend going all natural, I didn't but my epidural wore off before I started pushing and I honestly think that's what saved my life and saved me from tearing my pervious scar completely open. I was in more than excruciating pain.

@mamadee714, it doesn't matter how long it's been or how small your scar is. Did you ask for an explanation? Or insist on on a natural birth? They cannot force you to do anything. But you have to make sure your point is made. If there is a valid explanation as to why you can't then they will tell you but you have to make sure they tell you. You can't just go with what they say if you prefer something different

it has been 4 years since my c-section. I do have a scar and it's very small almost the length of index finger. when I asked they didn't even explain anything they just say no. And talked about how easy it will be . I will come in they will do the c-section and there done. 😐 @workingmom55 @jazzyjazz @genevievexxooxxoo @twinscomingsoon

The reason the suggest you stick with c section after you've had one is to make sure you don't tear or rip or injure yourself. You can insist on having a natural vaginal birth they wil just have you fill out paperwork stating you want to go against dr opinion.

My first was a c section because he was breeched and with my second I went for a VBAC and ended up with a c section because my pervious scar had started to open. I'd look at getting a second opinion, but don't always discredit your doctor there's a lot that goes into them deciding if a c section or vbac is best for you.

Doctors just prefer c section cause they make more money I remember my doc was insisting for one cause my baby was going to be "big" but I didn't fall for it and my son ended up being only 7lbs...my aunt had a c section with her first cause he was breeched and had her daughter 2 years later vaginal

It's been 4 years since your c-section, correct? There is no reason you can't have a successful vbac. Look for a new doctor.

@mamadee714, me to my doctor said its safer because while ur in labor ur c-section line can open

Personally i havent but my sister had her first through c-section and the last 3 vaginal
