Labor w/ 2nd Baby after C-Section

[AvianasMommy]

Hi ladies! I am hoping some of you have gone through this and may be able tell me your experience?

With DD1, I was induced at 38 weeks. I was already 3 cm dilated when the induction was started and had cervidil and then pitocin. I was in labor for over 30 hours and didn't progress at all. I wound up having a c-section and they told me that my labor wasn't progressing because the baby's chin was up.

I'm hoping for a VBAC this time around. I know they say labor with your second/third/etc. usually goes faster but since I was induced and then had a c-section I'm wondering what to expect? Will this be like laboring with a first baby? Just curious. Thanks everyone .
