    VBAC after only 18 months???

    Hi All,

    I am currently considering my options on whether to have another c-section with my next baby or to try VBAC?

    I have two gorgeous girls - my eldest is 9 who was born normal delivery (is that right to say it that way?) My youngest is 11 months old and was born by emergency c-section. My query is, what is a safe timeframe to attempt a VBAC? The reason I ask, is I live in a remote area and would have to travel elsewhere if I wanted to try VBAC, but I do not want to do this if my chances are slim? By the time my next bub is due, it will have been 18 months from my last c-section. Is that too soon?

    Thanks in advance for your advice.

    DonnaJayne.

    Nope not too soon

    I had just under 16 months between my second c-section and my vba2c. Then just under 16 months again between my first and second vba2c.
