What Is VBAC?

VBAC stands for Vaginal Birth After Caesarean. It refers to achieving a vaginal delivery in a subsequent pregnancy after a previous caesarean section. With the right candidate selection, careful monitoring, and experienced obstetric care, VBAC is a safe and achievable goal for many women.

Why Consider VBAC?

• Avoid the risks of repeat caesarean surgery (infection, adhesions, blood loss)
• Faster recovery time compared to a C-section
• No surgical scar complications
• Better bonding and breastfeeding outcomes
• Shorter hospital stay
• Emotional satisfaction of a vaginal birth experience

Who Is a Good Candidate for VBAC?

• One previous low transverse (horizontal) caesarean section
• No contraindication to vaginal delivery in this pregnancy
• Adequate pelvis size for vaginal delivery
• No prior uterine rupture
• Single baby in head-down position
• No placenta previa or major complications

Who Should Avoid VBAC?

• Two or more previous caesarean sections (may be considered case-by-case)
• Classical (vertical) uterine incision in previous C-section
• Previous uterine rupture
• Placenta previa
• Active herpes infection or other contraindications to vaginal delivery
