Thank you for this thread girls. I am aiming for a VBAC with this bub. I'm only 14 1/2 weeks, but I'm already nervous about it not working. I have an umbilical hernia and my muscles are separated half way to my ribcage already. I don't think I knitted properly after DS. I'm nervous it will be another big baby. I've already decided I'm not booking a cs until 42 weeks, I don't want continuous monitoring, I don't want an ARM - but everything I didn't want last time, I got.

So thank you guys for sharing your stories. I know there is life afterwards if it does not work - and funnily that makes me slightly more relaxed and possibly have a better chance at the VBAC. I sincerely hope I get a VBAC, but if I don't, I will know that I am in good company of wonderful women and mothers. Thank you.
