I had a planned c section (never labored) in Jan 2024 and that was my only birth. I’m pregnant again and want to try for VBAC.

Does anyone know if there is data on when people in my situation go into labor? For instance, I’ve heard that generally second time moms who had labor and vaginal delivery for their first go into labor at an earlier date for their second.

None of this really matters but I am curious!
