Hello girls I had a question
I gave birth last month
I wanted to know I had a c section with my baby
Am I going to be able to try for a normal delivery with my second child?
@breenda21, I waited 2.5 years to get pregnant again because I wanted to finish nursing my first, plus I had just started a new job. So they’re 3.5 years apart. I think the recommendation is a minimum of 18 months between pregnancies but ask your OB.
I definitely depends. Some women are able to have a VBAC but it all depends on length of time post section and healing, etc.
It depends on why you had a c-section for the first one, depends on the doctor and the hospital. Some hospitals don’t allow vbacs. I wanted a vbac with my second so I switched doctors in my first trimester and he was very supportive. Unfortunately it didn’t happen for me because I wasn’t dilating and decided to go ahead with another c-section. When he saw the position of my baby he said “oh there was no way this baby was coming out the regular way.” So I’m glad I didn’t torture myself with long painful labor for nothing.
