I think it depends on your age. I had my first c-section in my 20's and I bounced right back, was up moving around the first day. My second and third were in my 30's and were much more difficult. My third being the worst. We are expecting # 8 in July and I will be trying to have a v-back in the hospital. I was excited to find out that we are in an area where there are doctors that will let you do v-backs.

Well I got my doctors appointment. The baby is doing good and so am I. And I had another ultrasound so we got to see our little girl again. I found out though that I will have to schedule another c-section. I really didnt want to do that, but the Lord knows best.

My first baby was a c-section, my second a v-back in the hospital, the next three v-back's at home, my sixth and seventh I tried to have at home, but ended up going the the hospital and had c-sections. Neither one of them were emergencies we just knew it wasn't going to happen at home. I am very high risk, and will be trying to have another v-back in the hospital with #8 in July. I don't know your situation, but unless you find a doctor that does v-backs most won't let you have one. This doesn't always mean you can't have one. A lot of doctors don't do them, because of malpractice insurance that doesn't allow it.
