VBAC after 2 sections?

Hi all,

As the title says I am pregnant with my third. The first time the baby was breech so I had to have an elective section. Second pregnancy I wanted a VBAC but had a massive cyst on my ovary that almost ruptured and needed to be removed. So I ended up with a section and a cystectomy at the same time.

My first section was a dream. But the second was a nightmare. My baby suffered from wet lungs (a condition linked to sections) and spent 10 days in special care. I ended up with an infection and very poorly. Didn't manage to breastfeed so I ended up pumping exclusively for 6 months (never doing that again).

Now I am really reluctant to have another section but I don't want to put baby at risk either.

Does anyone have experience of a successful VBAC after 2 sections? Thanks a lot!
