Anyone experienced the above? I just want to know whats the chance of having natural birth if first one was c-sect.

And if yes, what's the age gap of your children, thanks.
 
It's possible as long as you have strong conviction about it. My dd2 was born naturally, weighing 3.38kg. I did it without any epidural, painkillers. 5 years gap between dd1 and dd2 though..

Another important factor is to find a gyn who's supportive of VBAC(natural birth after c sect). I heard of many gyn who don't advocate VBAC for fear of uterine rapture...

My gynae is quite neutral about it though I think most gynaes would prefer us to go c-sect to save THEIR time..hahaha

I just worried that if I choose to wait, i may ended up emer c-sect again which cost alot !!

Now trying to save some $$ since rates for both TMC and Mt A have gone up tremendously over the years.

The midwife will let you pee and shit on the bed, before you give birth. ;)

how about during delivery? will u have the urge to pee while pushing!
nope. i think even if u do, u wont realise it. as it's either too pain, or u took epidural. :x but i was afraid that i might pass motion. as least peeing is not that bad...
