I haven't gotten the original post yet, but if you want an interview
I've had one vaginal birth (vacuum assisted), one emergency c-
section, one failed VBAC resulting in c-section, and one successful
VBAC with no assistance necessary.

I like variety. :)

I suggest that you contact ICAN, the International Ceasarian Awareness
Network. There are a lot of VBACs there, and they will have a lot of
information on the safety of VBAC backed up by peer-reviewed research.
