Morgan
a former co-leader did a lot of research on VBACs when she was
pregnant with number 4 after 3 previous c sections. She ended up with
another section after labour not progressing, at full term, but the doc,
knowing how many people had said the scar would split, took a look when he
was in there and told her that there would have been no way that it would
have. I can track her contact details down if you want to contact me
offline, but it was about 10 years ago, so the info won't be the most up
to date.
