    I am VBACing hopefully anyday now, my reason was the recovery time especially with another child to chase after this time and also the bonding issues I had with my DS and the trouble I had with breastfeeding, I also was very emotionally traumatised with my CS and want to feel accomplishment this time. whatever you choose YOU have to feel good about. best of luck!

    My first was an emergency c-section, it was incredibly traumatising for me and I ended up with PND and PTSD, 2nd time round I had an elective c-section because it was 'better' for my mental health, I was absolutely terrified of the though of going through another labour, but that is just my story, good luck with whatever you decide.
