Couldn't remember how to X-post so here goes:

I am 39w1d and am trying for a VBAC. So far, my OB"s have been supportive in the sense that they have let me go this far even though my BP has been high but controlled with medication. All labs and 24 urines have come back fine. C-section scheduled for 40w4d.

I was induced with DS bc my BP went up at 35 weeks. I was 36w5d. It was a failed induction and I wound up with a c-section. Horrible experience and one I absolutely do not want to repeat.

I am of course hoping I go into labor on my own so I at least have a chance at a VBAC but I know that just going into labor is no guarantee that I will avoid a csection.

What steps can I take/interventions should I avoid to increase my chances of a successful VBAC? I really want this to work.
