I had an EMCS with my first and then went onto have a great VBAC experience in hospital and then after that two home water births. The recovery time is so much quicker when you have a natural birth and I couldn't have coped not being able to pick my toddler up for 6 weeks if I'd have had a csection. It is important you feel comfortable with your choice though. I agree with an earlier post who suggested hynobirthing. I've never tried it but do really believe in empowering yourself to help you have a successful birthing experience.
