How many c/s have you had?

JaysonandKristin · September 2011

How many have you had? Was each one scheduled or unplanned?

Do you plan to try for a VBAC for any subsequent pregnancies, or will you plan for a RCS?

desertlady86 · September 2011

I've had one, it was unplanned. I will be having a RCS with my next.

Mrs_MBed · September 2011

I've had two - unplanned and planned and will be delivering via RCS in February or March.

At that time, I'm getting my tubes tied, so I'll have had 3 total.

everam01 · September 2011

Just one.

It was scheduled for 38 weeks but ended up happening at 36 1/2 due to blood pressure.

If I have any more children (which isn't likely) I would have a repeat.

rachbenn2007 · September 2011

I've had 2, one unplanned, one RCS.

No plans for a VBAC having another RCS and having my tubes tied and a cyst removed in Nov. So this will be my third c-section.

nosoup4u · September 2011

I had an unplanned c-section with my first son, and a VBAC with my second.

measrn · September 2011

I just had my fourth (and last). The first was unplanned and the other 3 were scheduled.

iris427 · September 2011

I had one unplanned c/s and then a VBAC. I think we're done having kids but if we had another, I would try for another VBAC.

jessie395 · September 2011

My 1st was unplanned and my 2nd was a planned repeat.

disbride061103 · September 2011

Two. My first was planned when DS turned breech 5 days before my due date. My second was unplanned after a failed VBAC/induction.

Cristine · September 2011

I've had two. One emergency and one planned (NJ wouldn't let me VBAC). If I ever have another they won't give me a choice I'll have to do a planned.

Mama Jan · September 2011

Two c-sections, both were scheduled but did not happen according to schedule. I will have another RCS.

Beckypooh09 · September 2011

I've had 2. They were both unplanned but not emergencies. The second I was trying for a VBAC but it didn't happen. If we decided on a third I would likely just go for a RCS.

Aloe0l · September 2011

One, unplanned. I will be planning a VBAC the next time around.

Kdonn15 · September 2011

I've had two emergency c-sections, the second time I was trying for a VBAC, but baby's heart rate dropped (like a repeat of my first delivery). I also had a tear in my uterus so if we have a third child RCS is the only way my OB will deliver.

beautifulstr13 · September 2011

I have had one planned and the next will be a rcs.

biblionerd · September 2011

First was planned. This one will be a rcs. I can't have a vbac because they're too close and this one will most likely be the same size or bigger and DS wouldn't fit. I am 99% sure we're done after 2 but any others will also be rcs if we happen to have more.

capulet · September 2011

I've had one unplanned c/s, will probably have an RCS with this one.

novilise · September 2011

I've had two.

My first was unplanned, 3 years ago.

My second was a RCS,(did leave a little bit of wiggle room for a VBAC), 6 weeks ago.

Would like to have at least one more and that will most likely be another RCS. It's scary, but both options scare me and so far, my c-sections have gone very well.

julbeejulz · September 2011

I had one unplanned c/s and I will probably end up with another c/s.

lucylea · September 2011

I have had two. The first was technically scheduled, but only after I had been in prodromal labor for ten days without progress. It was scheduled about three days out. The second was a scheduled repeat.

I'm done having kids, but never considered a VBAC even for number two due to my experience with my first labor and delivery and the fact that my OB was willing to try, but didn't predict a successful VBAC.

AnnaRedhead · September 2011

I've had one and will likely go for a RCS if we have another. Colin weighed 11 pounds and big babies run in both my family and DH's family so I'm thinking baby #2 may be big as well. We'll see though!

Shoshi10 · September 2011

I have had one. It was planned when DD turned breech at 37 weeks (i had another ultrasound the morning of, to make sure she was still breech and she was). My OB and hospital don't allow vbacs and I am fine with having a repeat C/S next time

Mrs. Alice · September 2011

One c-section, it was expected but not really "scheduled"

I will probably want to attempt a VBAC if we have another baby, but I won't be heart broken if I have a RCS. As long as the baby is full term and healthy is what matters.

Kellina · September 2011

2. Both were planned- GD/ large babies. I wanted a VBAC with #2, but he was measuring large so they wouldn't let me.

If I have a 3rd, I believe I'm doomed for a RCS!

melandjudd · September 2011

I've had 1 it was an unplanned emergency, Next time I will get a repeat c/s

disneyfan0511 · September 2011

I've had one, unplanned - emergency. I want to VBAC #2.

Jen&Peter · September 2011

I have had 3 scheduled c-sections. We are now officially done having babies

I would never try for a VBAC. For me, the c-sections just get easier each time!

juliane2004 · September 2011

Two c-sections: 1 was emergency, 1 was planned.

emma&katiesmom · September 2011

Two planned c-section and this little guy is planned for a c-section on Halloween. I'm having my tubes tied so he will be our last. I've had great experiences with c-sections so far and I don't anticipate this one will be any different.

me too

hnmccormack · September 2011

I have had one unplanned c/s. I'm not fully decided on whether or not I want a RCS or try VBAC. I think it will all depend on how the pregnancy is going and if I go into labor on my own.

MrsCali_Bride · September 2011

Just the one. I had a successful induction and vaginal delivery with our oldest son but had a planned c-section with the twins due to positioning (Amelia was breech almost the entire pregnancy and Owen was flipping between breech & transverse). We're pretty sure that we're done having kids but if we did decide to have one more, it would be a repeat c-section. My hospital doesn't allow VBACs.
