    I'd be getting on the phone and ringing around to try and find an OB that would consider it.
    my OB was all for me trying VBAC and DS2 was born when DS1 was only 18months but it wasnt meant to be.
    good luck!

    What Nic said. And do lots of reading, arm yourself with knowledge. You are entitled to the birth YOU want, even if you do choose to have surgery again.

    Ask lots of questions in here too... the women on BB are a wealth of knowledge

    Good luck Charmzy.
    How have you found the response from caregivers about wanting a vba3c?
