Just wanted to ask any previous CS mum a quick question. 2 girls from my Playgroup had their babies in the last week both by elective (on OB advice) CS. They were really surprised that I was going to try for a VBAC and tht my OB was "letting" me go full term. Both had their CS at 38 weeks, one was advised that she risked tearing her scar if she went full term. Neither Mum was "allowed' to go to 40 weeks.

Am I crazy? My OB has never mentioned anything about trying to get me into labour early. She has however said that she won't induce me (other than to break my water at 40 weeks if my cervix was favourable) and she would rather me not go to 42 weeks like I did with my DS but that we would "cross that bridge when we came to it". She has always told me that I could VBAC and their was no reason that it all wouldn't happen just as we plan. But now I'm getting a bit scared as the time ticks away and especially after talking to these 2 girls. Are their OB's just being over cautious do you think?
