Hi Wendy!

My Name is Lindsay and I'm also 27.  I have one ds (2yrs) Who is a Noah too :)  I had a c/s with him after a 36wk induction for pre-eclampsia that turned into fetal distress & complete transverse arrest.  I would think that since you've already had one vag delivery and your c/s was for breech that you would be considered a really great candidate for c/s by the medical establishment. 

 

My regular OBGYN (who delivered me) was not very supportive of me wanting a vbac when I brough it up at my 6wk pp visit.  I seriously considered switching b/c of her. When I got pg again (due in Oct) I found out that she no longer does OB so I started seeing all the other dr's and mw's in the practice to feel them out.  I have seen 3 out 4- 2 were extremely supportive, 1 seemed ok with it but not completely "thrilled" about my odds b/c my c/s occurred during the pushing stage, he did say that he won't discourage me from trying though.  I have one left to see and I have heard that he does vbac's but again won't jumping up and down about it.  I would talk to your ob (or ob's if your in a big practice) and feel them out on the VBAC issue, if you don't think they will support you and then start looking for a new one or a mw. 

 

Best of luck to you!!

Lindsay

It was just kinda said in passing..while the doctor was taking out my
staples he was making small talk and said "are you planning to have
more" and i told him i was planning on having one more within the next
2 years...and he said something along the lines of "can you handle
another section that soon" or something like that. He wasn't the
doctor who did my section but I had seen him once at an appt. So im
not really sure why he would say it and honestly at the time i didn't
care i just wanted the staples out..lol
