I had my first child by c-section about a year and a half ago, and am now pregnant again. I had a 28 hour induction (labour began four hours after induction began) and only made it to 4cm before the c-sec (baby's heart rate dropping). I would love to give birth vaginally this time around, but i am VERY scared of going through this again. I have asked my doctor if at all possible to book a c-sec atleast 7 - 10 days after my due date inorder to give myself a chance to go into labour naturally (i REFUSE to be induced again), he said that at the hospital i want to deliver at (same as first child), it may not be possible, and that deciding one or the other may be better.... so now i don't now what to do! Has anyone here had a succussful VBAC??
