i'm sorry i'm not going to be any help, i'm not sure what the risks are etc, but since you have the experience with vag births and c-sections, why are you going for the c-section this time, how do they compare?? i had an emergency c-section with my first and the labour was so traumatic and long it left me fragile for months and months... this time around i'm torn with whether to go for an elective c-section (i will feel so much more in control and have a lot less anxiety) or get a doula and try for a VBAC - i am terrified with going thru the same thing again and being emotionally ruined with a newborn...

sorry for rambling long winded personal post, just interested to hear comparisons with vag births and c-sections..... a girlfriend of mine has done both and she said if she had her time over she would have just booked in for an elective c-section and not gone thru the birth.....
