Help please 2 c sections and vbac....

Has anyone had 2 c sections and had a successfull natural birth afterwards.

Had my 1st midwife appointment the other day and we were going through all my history with the previous 2 pregnancies. my 1st i had to have an emergancy c section as i failed to progress, stopped dilating at 4 cms and the fact my 1st boy was 9lb 6.5ozs (8days late) and im only 5ft tall myself. So with the second pregnancy has to have a sizing scan at 38 weeks to see if my second boy would be a big baby and they said he probably would be so i have a planned c section, he was 8lb 6.5ozs (3 days early from due date).

Now that im pregnant again at 10+5 weeks, but midwife this im a bit further on as she could here the babys heartbeat very clear and your not ment to here they to around 12 weeks or something.
Anyway she said i will have to have another planned c section. didnt even really give me the option of a natural birth and that i want, well at least give it a go. i suppose ill have to go through with all these sizing scans again to see how big the baby is ut it just put my down a bit the fact she said c section that it.

Anyway thanks for listening i just needed a moan lol as i havent told anyone about my pregnancy yet.

Hello

I'm afraid that's what I've heard too. You can have a vbac after 1 c section but if you've had 2, then they don't take any risk and you have to have a c section for the 3rd one. That's what they do in my area anyway. Sorry about that hun. It's because they're afraid of damages to the uterus if you have contractions (could open the scars).
Good luck hon,
