Yea you can have a natural birth its called VBAC (Vaginal birth after c-section) but if the doc thinks you might tear your incision from before he might not let you do it

If u had pre term labor most likely they did was is called a classical (vertical) not a bikini (horizontal). Because ur uterus is still thick on the bottom where they do a bikini. I had my twin boys (lost one) @ 26 wks they did a classical c-section because of it. So I had to have my daughter c-section & I ruptured all the way to my cervix with her. Even if u had a bikini I would ask my Dr to check the integrity of the scar if I were u just to make sure it is safe.

I wanted a vbac with my daughter I was so bummed out when they told me I couldn't have one but obviously it was for the best I would still like to know what real labor is like. :-S

I had a c-section with my first and a vaginal with my second. It can be done. My doctor said there was a chance of my uterine wall rupturing, but she was going to wait and see how baby was coming and how I was laboring. Everything was good, I had a vbac. It was awesome

There is also a risk of rupture with a bikini yes it is somewhat rare but it can happen. I guess it makes me nervous cause I know people that it has happened to. & they had to have a hysterectomy because they tried labor. I would have ur Dr look @ the scar on ur uterus just to make sure if I were u. If it looks good I say go for it & wish I was u lol. Good luck! I'll b praying for u that u can have a natural birth with absolutely no complications.

Its definitely possible. I had a c-section with my 1st because he was breech and I had 2 vbac after that. I guess it all depends on the reason why you had a c-section and your doc.

I did it and recommend it to any Mum who is willing to try natural. It was such a calmer and more beautiful experience then the c-section. The drs tried to bully me into a second c-section but i did alot of research and found my chances of problems were higher with a planned section then vbac. Also i only had 14 months between having my section and getting pregnant again. You can do it :-)
