I'm currently hoping for a VBAC (in water if all going well), but if I don't get to start naturally then options are induce or c-section.
I'm trying to way up the pros and cons, but as I don't actually want either I'm struggling.
How have others felt?
How long were your hospital happy for you to go over your due date?
If my cervix isn't ready is it even worth my trying for an induction?
My first c-section was after a failed induction with fetal distress and failure to progress.
I'm worried if I try for an induction It'll just end up as a c section as thats what happened last time.
But think I'd be frustrated in myself if I didn't at least try for a induced vbac.
But of course the rupture rates are so much higher on an induced VBAC and am not sure what drugs they'd use to induce me as this seems to impact on rupture rates.
My pregnancy brain is spinning.
Any help/advice/anecdotes appreciated
