How will I know if am a good candidate for VBAC?

Personally, I would NEVER even try a VBAC (vaginally birth after cesarean). Years ago, I was called in for an emergency c-section while working as a respiratory therapist. When I walked into the O.R. it looked like a war zone. It was a VBAC gone wrong. The woman's uterus ruptured, and we struggled to save mom and baby. In the end, both survived. However, the woman had an unplanned hysterectomy because of the ruptured uterus. No more babies for her. Over the years, there were other cases, but that one stays in my mind. My children are 14 years apart. Both were C-Sections. The method of delivery does not change the fact that you are a woman and carried a child, birthed a child and will raise that child. For peace of mind, consult your OB/GYN.
