I'm due with dc#3 on 6th November, and after an emcs 6 years ago and elcs 3 years ago, I'm keen to try for a vbac.

First birth I was induced at 41+3, fully dilated but after 24 hours established labour dc was distressed and posterior so ended in emcs at 41+6.

Second birth, was a bit traumatised by the first birth, baby was posterior at 37w so obstetrician recommended elcs and I agreed. Very easy birth and recovery.

I have a supportive obstetrician who is letting me go to 40+5 then will book an elcs on 11 nov if no spontaneous labour.

Join me for the ride over the next few weeks - taking bets on the chances this kid will be born by vbac, and when the birth will happen. Keep me entertained!
