Hi,

Vaginal birth after cesarean is possible, but if we induce pain for delivery , the chances of not having normal birth and landing up with a cesarean are higher, as compared to if you go into labour yourself.
Usually we wait up to the due date to see if you go into labour, and then decide on the cesarean. This is because when the first is a cesarean, if you go into labour yourself the chances of a vaginal delivery are as high as 72%, but reduces if we have to induce pain by medications. Also if we induce pain there is a slightly higher chance of complications for mother and baby, if the induction fails and the operation has to be carried out in emergency. I would advice you to wait till due date and then decide in favor of cesarean if you don't go into labour.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
