Thank you Kate! You have no idea how good it made me feel re muscles separating etc I'm very lucky my Ob is very pro-VBAC (he's pro whatever Mum wants, but really, whatever's best for her - which is a vag birth!). He's happy for me to go 42 weeks waiting for labour (DS never fully engaged so don't know if I would have gone into natural labour at all, but there were other factors anyway), hasn't mentioned size of baby - although DH has, and we have yet to approach monitoring - but intermittent monitoring is just fine with me I wont be strapped to a CTG, even a mobile one.

Thank you again, it's still a long way to go, but I'm going to do it!
