VBAC
VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) is a viable choice for pregnant women who have previously undergone one or more cesarean sections. A cesarean section involves a surgical procedure with a sizable incision across the abdomen and uterus to deliver the baby. This surgical method results in scarring and potential weakening of the tissues along the incision site, which increases the risk of complications in subsequent births. If you have previously had a cesarean section, you can elect another cesarean section for your next delivery or consider the alternative of VBAC.
VBAC Benefits
- Lower risk of infection
- Shorter recovery time
- Reduced blood loss
- No postsurgical pain
- No wounds to care for
- Reduced risk of C-section-related complications
