Lots of us here have had VBACs, including me. Do you have any specific questions? Are you currently with a supportive provider? Do you have ICAN in your area?

I'm planning a home VBAC and am super excited for it, and the easier/faster recovery! I would start reading up on VBACs so you feel more comfortable with the idea :-) My favorite book is The VBAC Companion, I found it at the library.

And here are some good sites:

Hope that all helps! This board is really helpful and supportive, so if you have more questions, someone usually has a nice answer :-)

You can click on the word ICAN in her post and it will bring you to the website. Its a local group of supporters of VBAC's with a list of states they have them. They can give info on providers to turn to for support and have meetings you can attend.
