VBAC induction
Hi,
this is my 5th baby & ive had 3 previous normal births (2 inductions) & with my last it was a section due to him being breech. I also developed Gestational Diabetes with him. Id really really prefer a VBAC this time around but firstly i only ever went into labour naturally once but that was about 40+4 so overdue, the other 2 times i was induced 10 days over. Its quite likely ill develop GD again & with that I know from last time i will not be let go over at all. Theres little chance of me going early with my history so my question is this - will i be able to try for a VBAC or will they refuse seeing as induction with VBAC is a no no using pitocin or perhaps they would let me get the gel @ 40w to see would that kick it off?
Has anyone any experience of this or similar?
thanks gals.
