First time older moms with normal uncomplicated delivery?

Hello,

I'll be 39. Generally very fit and healthy and pregnant with my first. Most of my friends (younger when they had their first) ended up having an emergency c-section after attempting VB.

Given my age, are my chances of having a complicated birth higher if I go down VB route? I am trying to getting a sense of my chances of having an uncomplicated VB (no instruments needed and 1st or 2nd degree tear max). I know there are no guarantees but I wonder if anyone here has any first time older mums success stories to share?

Thanks
