My son was overdue so I was induced and ended up having an emergency c-section, because of brow presentation, fetal distress and placenta was starting to shut down.

Now pregnant and nearly due with our second baby my OB wasme to try a VBAC. The dilemma we have is:

1.We have no family where we live to look after our son while my husband works and my only friend is coming to the hospital with us to look after our son.
2.My husband is only casual where he works and can not take time off work to mind our son while I am in hospital which will be for 5 days as I am going private. He works to a roster so he has to work by his roster or he does not get paid.
3.My husband has his 8 day break from the 6th october - 13th october. I was going to call my OB and ask him to do another c-section in that break but I will only be 37 weeks and 3 days pregnant (is this too early) (my family can come up the day he goes back to work to help me for 2 weeks). Who's to say I go naturally and end up having another c-section anyway.

Should I call my OB on Monday and mention this too him (he knows we have no family up here) because my next appointment is on the 5th october and I do not want to leave it till then to tell him I would like to have another c-section. I have mentioned this to him before but he keeps saying wait till we get a little closer things could change but I do not want to leave it too late to mention it to him because he probably won't do it till the week after.

Some suggestions would be great.
