I know that the longer it has been since your c-section the better. What other requirements are there?

I'm not doing a VBAC, but I think b/c the issue was with DS's heart rate dropping that I could do a VBAC. Meaning, it wasn't b/c of my body or anything. If your last LO was breach or anything like that.

Re: What makes you a good candidate for a VBAC?

The type of incision you had, low transverse is the ideal to VBAC. As far as being successful can depend on why you had your c-section. If your c-section had nothing to do with how you labored, e.g. baby went into distress or it was scheduled because baby was breech, etc.., you have a higher probability of successfully VBACing.

Hmmm so if I had a failed induction due to DS being sunnyside up and never dilating further than 1.5 cm, I wouldn't be a good candidate?
