I just recently found out that the last section I had was a vertical incision on the uterus. Abdominal was horizontal. Does anyone know the risks of a vertical vs horizontal incision?
I had a vertical incision with a horizontal on the outside. The biggest thing I've been told is just that a vbac is not possible, and I'll have to have a scheduled c-section with any future pregnancies. From what I've read, you can't have a vbac because the scar is much weaker and can rupture.

Hi ladies. No personal experience here but my SIL had two c-sections, one a vertical and the second a t incision. She just had a successful VBAC with her third baby. If it's something you're interested in, don't be afraid to research and get some support. Good luck!!!
