had at least one vaginal delivery.
are younger than 35 years of age (6).
had a low transverse incision (a horizontal cut near the pubic hairline) during the first C-section (7).
had the previous C-section due to the baby’s health conditions such as abnormal fetal heart rate or a breach in position.
