Just after any advice out there with VBACS, We are expecting out #2 child early July, DS will be aprox 19 months old when #2 arrives. DS birth progressed normally dialating resonably quick, then turning into vontooes, forcepts, epsi and emergancy csec. He never engaged nor did he turn from posterior. He was also 39weeks. and 7.14lb I would really love a VBAC as this is our lasted 'planned' child so any advice/ storie welcome!!  ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

I realised you posted this a wee while ago and I dont really have any advice for you, but we are in exactly the same position except I'm due on friday. DS was the same- posterior, didn't engage and failed labour, ventouse and c section. The obstetricians and midwives Ive seen have told me that since it was a positional problem with DS, I shouldn't have any issues having a VBAC though the hospital will want to monitor everything closely. Did you see an Ob after DS was born? ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Firstly good luck getting your VBAC. No didnt see anyone after having #1, Had out NT scan today and we have an anterior placenta. After a bit of reaserch its very pos this one will be posterior too.. Think i have a long road ahead of me to get my VBAC ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

I have had 2 C-sections and 2 "normal" births. I absolutely believe that vaginal births leave you in a much better state post delivery than C-section. I would say bonding and recovery are both much easier. My midwife was really pro vbac so it was an easy option for me, even after difficult labours resulting in c-sections. I guess for me it was about ensuring I was set up properly for successful delivery. Both my csections happened after post-due inductions that didn't progress. Soooo for me avoiding induction and waiting longer for water breaking so that baby was in a good position for delivery were both really important. Also avoiding epidural pain relief was key as this halted labour for me. VBAC was, for me AWESOME. I thoroughly recommend it as long as you n bubba stay safe.
