VBAC information?

I'm 15 weeks along now, and have been told that I have the option of trying for a VBAC delivery this time around. Have any of you done this? What are some of the risks involved? Do you think it's better just to have the repeat c-section? Thanks in advance!

    75% of VBAC candidates manage to have a successful birth. Most of the reports of uterine rupture were actually caused by induction or labor enhancing medications that are no longer used on women with a prior c-section (hey, they make some women's uterus' rupture even though they never had surgery before!).

    I think it's a great idea. You are less likely to have additional risks if you have a VBAC and won't be increasing your risks for every baby you have.

    do no longer do it, i do no longer care how lots it quite is getting known. What they do no longer enable you know is which you're at a lots larger possibility once you do a VBAC. Granted, whilst it works it somewhat is a great difficulty, yet whilst VBACS pass undesirable, they pass undesirable rapid!!!!!! woman, and toddlers have died. seem and notice, to no longer many docs help a VBAC. i can not even detect a doctor in my city which will do it. i know it sounds great, and c-sections do suck, whether it places you and the toddler in possibility, to me, it quite is not nicely worth it. good luck to you ~A ****why the thumbs down? in the beginning, i'm a nurse, I doubt all of us else answering is. We examine learn and notice issues in hospitals maximum human beings won't in any respect hear approximately. Uterine rupture isn't that uncomplicated in VBACS, yet whilst IT DOES ensue woman would hemorrhage, and could no longer die, yet would finally end up along with her uterus bumped off to keep her existence. My maximum suitable pal works in exertions and transport and notice's VBACS pass incorrect quite a few cases in a three hundred and sixty 5 days, whether sure, maximum are ok. individually, it quite is not nicely surely worth the possibility, yet it somewhat is merely me****
