    Muma - I think you need to call your doc and discuss your birth plan with them in more detail. Write down at which point you want to change to c ... out of curiosity, why planning an induction on your due date?

    Good luck !

    hey hun

    its ok to feel a little scared...birth in any form is a powerful and awe inspiring event

    the risk of having a (repeat) c/s with an induction are definately increased with a VBAC...as your body and your baby is not quite ready for labor and birth

    have faith in your body and go with your heart...and dont feel pressured into having a c/s just because it is your due date...the risks of uterine rupture are minimal with no intervention, but increased with every intervention that you have (breaking waters, synto drip etc)

    it is normal to feel very emotional and unsure at this stage...endorphins kicking around your system making it hard to concentrate and feeling very overwhelmed with being pregnant. Plus on top of this having a previous unexpected birthing event...dont be fearful

    my first birth was not great and I worked very hard in my 2nd pregnancy to let go of my fears associated with 'will it happen again'...I was emotional and just let it all out...and felt an amazing calm the day before I met my baby

    sending you hugs :hugs:
