My dd is 11 months old and I'm now 8 weeks pregnant with number two.
DD was born by emergency ceasarean and I was advised to wait for a year before getting pregnant again.
Well, whoops! Contrary to plans, I found out a month ago that I was up the duff again.
I tried very hard to give birth to dd the natural way (30 hours on gas and air before I admitted defeat) and I'd really like to avoid going under the knive again if possible.
At my booking in appointment last week, I asked the nurse if she thought that was going to be possible and she said it was unlikely that they would let me go for a VB, because I hadn't left a big enough gap.
I'm still feeling really disappointed about this. I have my first scan on 11 April, and will ask again then, but does anyone out there have experience of VBAC without a year's gap between pregnancies?
