Does the second delivery have to be a C-section too?

raji,

I think its not that if the first delivery is c-section, second should also be c-section. It depends on the health condition and the gynec too. Some of my friends had VBAC. But i don't have much knowledge abt it.

Even i'm in totally confused state now. I'm 28 weeks pregnant with my second baby. My first delivery was c-section 5 yrs back in India.Now i'm in US and my delivery will be here in US. My gynec. left to me to decide abt the delivery. She also wants my first delivery history to try for normal which I don't have now. I asked the history abt my previous delivery in that hospital (India), but they are taking such a long time to issue.I'm not sure whether they maintain those.My mom often visits the hospital to get my records, but of no proper inf.....

Now i feel like I need to try for normal, but no previous delivery history available. In this case i should go for C-section only. But my friends say since if you have a chance for normal delivery, why do I need to go for c-section...tats reasonable.....I had worst experience in my first delivery,which for purposely done(18 days before my due date)..so tooooo scared abt delivery now.....i already discussed abt this in another thread.....I'll be happy if god takes my baby out magically...tat won't happen...hmmmm....

Thanks for reading my story and Polambal ,friends..just venting out...

Hope I'll get some idea here on this...
