[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 2166201, member: 2205"] We thought that too at one point. Some OB-GYN's will want to do that, because it's easier for them. My wife's (unplanned) C-section was not pleasant for her, though so she wanted to investigate VBAC. Her own OB-GYN had had a C-section followed by a VBAC, so she was very supportive, and said that as long as they kept an eye on things, there wasn't any reason why she couldn't have a VBAC delivery. Turns out, for us at least, that it wasn't a big deal. They kept a close-ish watch on her scar during the delivery, but nothing untoward happened, and the delivery and recovery both were so much better than the Caesarian that it wasn't even funny. With nos. 3 and 4, I don't think it was even an issue anymore, although we had moved and had a different doctor by then. I made sure to tell them that she had had a C-section previously followed by a VBAC and they didn't even seem to care very much. Let me go roust her from folding clothes and watching Gilmore Girls DVDs and see if she has anything to add... [/QUOTE]
