Well I attempted a VBAC with baby #2 but my retarded hubby made me go to the hospital once my contractions got to 3mins apart but he only did it because with my first daughter in 97' I never felt the contractions and had sooo many problems and we almost lost her from all the complications and after that I was too scared so after 8yrs (05') I had baby girl #2 and thank god she came on her own and I actually felt the contractions and was so greatfull cause my doc said the same was likely to happen again that she didn't want me attempting a VABC(she gave me a planned C-section date) sooo I thought my hubby was asleep I took the pain and hoped he wouldn't hear my breathing but he got up and asked if I was ok I said yeah and I walked out to the yard with the dogs..lol... and I thought I was slick that he called my doc on his cell and I guess she said to take me in and I refused but once he told he was up but acting like he was asleep and he said he was timing me and that my contractions were @3mins apart I got so excited that I was probly gonna have a fighting chance ....

So when I got to the hospital they called my doc and she said they weren't gonna let me get the VBAC because of my past history I cried like a baby cuz I felt like a failure and less of a woman and mother...
but once I went in for my emergency section again I was sooo pissed but when my baby girl was born the sadness,anger and all my bad feelings went away and all I had was tears of happiness!

Sorry this was so long but my point is if ur doc suggested it go for it I wish I could have ,I tried but doc said no can do even after I begged them to let me try but in the end me and my baby were ok and she was perfect and healthy... and I was happy they convinced me not to put our lifes at risk although sometimes I still wish I could have had a VBAC cause I feel I could have done it but doctors know best.

Also my doc said no matter what there always a risk for uterin rupture but its rare when it does happen.

Good luck with everything and if u decide for it I'm sure everything will tuen out great!
