Sorry, your theory failed in my case. I was told that I had an adequate size pelvis (my record show small pelvis with converging sidewalls) I was told I would have no problem. I had always wanted to hold my baby after I delivered so I was wanting this as much as the physicians!

If I am not mistaken ACOG has new guidelines concerning VBAC deliveries and one of those is that the patient must have an adequate size pelvis. (I don't think that was in effect when I delivered)
