Wow great post Glenny. I think it's great that no matter what you will be making an informed decision.

For my (POV for whatever it's worth seeing I have only ever had NVD). Is that go with what is in your heart. I think that however it ends up heart wins over brain. What I mean is looking back in 20years time. If you can say to yourself 'I knew xyz and I just felt it was the right decision' is better than looking back and going 'well if I'd known xyz I would have made a different decision'.

I think that there is a lot of pressure in our society for both vbac and eCS. Again I think this is because women hear only criticism of their own choices when it comes to birth when someone does something different to them.

Now having been someone that has supported three women to vbac. I think I'm right in saying a lot of their success had to do with their passion for their chosen birth. I don't think that they would have been successful if they had not been passionate or convinced they had made the right decision IYKWIM.

Whatever you choose will be right for you and your family. don't be bullied either way!

Whilst you can always change your mind is try getting to a decision soon so you have a goal to look forward too!

Whatever you decide I can't wait to meet another one of your lovely babies
