Description
Vaginal Birth After Caesarean: A Practical Guide for Women. The rate of caesarean births has increased significantly over the past few decades, with women now more than four times as likely to have a caesarean as they were thirty years ago. Despite this, there is no evidence to support the routine use of repeat caesareans, and many women are not encouraged to attempt vaginal birth after a previous caesarean. This book provides guidance and support for women who want to try VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Caesarean), offering practical advice and information on how to make an informed decision about their care. The book includes detailed explanations of the pros and cons of VBAC, as well as real-life birth stories and a comprehensive glossary of terms. It also provides essential information for parents-to-be, helping women to understand their options and make the best choice for themselves and their baby.
