Next time I get pregnant, I'm going to be well informed. I've done so much research and I know I can go for a VBAC.

What are your thoughts on this....

DD was born via elective c/s at 34 weeks. I had preterm labour at 28 and 31 weeks, but never dialated as it was always stopped in time.
DD was a c/s because she has such severe IUGR and was in breech. Knowing what I know now I would have attemped a vaginal breech delivery.

They say that labour gets shorter with each birth. How does that work, as I've never been in active/real labour.
My OB is very pro-VBAC, which is great. I'm just worried that things will go wrong again and that I'll end up having another c/s.
I have such issues over DD's delivery to the point where, 10 months later, I can't say that I gave birth to her. I always say "When DD was delivered..." or "when I had my c/s".

So, will my next labour be like a first time mother's??

What are you thoughts?
