Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC)

Many women who have undergone a caesarean section have the opportunity to safely opt for a vaginal delivery for their subsequent child, a choice known as Vaginal Birth After a Caesarean (VBAC). However, the advantages and disadvantages of this decision will be thoroughly discussed with you by your Obstetrician at BirthRight, empowering you to make an informed choice.

At BirthRight by Rainbow Hospitals, we are fully supportive of your decision to pursue a vaginal birth, even if you have previously undergone a C-section. Medically speaking, the option of having a vaginal birth after a prior C-section is indeed feasible, although consultation with your physician is essential. We have a team of certified specialists and nurse-midwives who specialize in conducting vaginal births after cesarean (VBAC). Seeking guidance from a VBAC specialist in your vicinity can provide you with a clearer understanding of the entire process, enabling you to make an informed decision that best suits you and your baby.

If you have previously delivered a child through c-section, you have two choices:

Opt for an elective repeat cesarean delivery.
Consider a Trial of Labor After Cesarean (TOLAC), with the aim of achieving a vaginal delivery.

BirthRight by Rainbow Hospitals will provide you with comprehensive information on both delivery options, facilitating your decision-making process. You can consult with your healthcare provider regarding the information we offer and decide whether VBAC is the right choice for you at our hospital.

Following are the benefits of having a VBAC

Shorter recovery period
No need of abdominal surgery
Less blood loss
Lower infection risk

A lot of women wish to experience natural birth, and VBAC provides an option for exactly that.

These concerns can include hysterectomy, bladder or bowel injury, and issues with the placenta in pregnancies in the future. VBAC can help avoid these health concerns. So, you might want to consider this if you are planning to have more children. Consult a VBAC specialist near you before making a decision. It would be beneficial to disclose any problems or complications that you may have faced in your last pregnancy.

How do I prepare?

If you are pregnant and you had C-section in your previous pregnancy, you should consult about VBAC at your initial prenatal visit itself. Have a discussion with your healthcare provider regarding your expectations and concerns. Provide your healthcare provider with your entire medical history, particularly records of previous cesarean delivery or any other uterine procedures. Your medical records will help determine the chances of VBAC being successful. You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of VBAC throughout pregnancy, particularly if specific risk factors come up.
If you choose to go for VBAC, you can improve your odds of having a positive experience by:

Learning more about VBAC and taking childbirth classes if needed
If possible, allow labor to start on its own. Having augmented or induced labor decreases the chances of successful VBAC

Stay flexible if C-section becomes necessary due to certain complications arising during pregnancy or labor. For instance, you might have to go for cesarean delivery if your baby is in an abnormal position, your labor fails to progress, or there's a problem with the umbilical cord or placenta.

What risks are associated with VBAC?

Some common risks associated with VBAC include blood loss, infection and other such complications. A serious but rare risk with VBAC is the rupture of the scar of C-section on the uterus. While it is rare, if it happens it can harm the baby and the mother as well. VBAC shouldn’t be tried if there is a high risk of the uterus rupturing.

Am I a good candidate for VBAC?

You can go to a VBAC hospital near you to get more information on the procedure. You may have to undergo some tests ordered by a VBAC specialist near you to determine if you are a good candidate for VBAC. Following are the conditions that make you a good candidate for VBAC:

Your previous C-section incision was a low-transverse (horizontal) uterine incision instead of a vertical or classical incision in your upper uterus or T-shaped, which comes with a higher risk for uterine rupture.
You have a large enough pelvis for your baby to safely pass through. While this can't be known for sure, our practitioner may examine your pelvis for making an educated guess.
You haven't ever had any other uterine surgery like myomectomy for removing fibroids
You haven't ever had a uterine rupture
You don't have a medical condition or obstetric issues like large fibroid or placenta previa that would increase the risk during vaginal delivery

Some factors that may play a role in unsuccessful VBAC include:

Being an older mother
Having a high body mass index (BMI)
Having a baby with a high birth weight (more than 4,000 grams)
Having pregnancy go beyond 40 weeks of gestation
Having a short span between pregnancies (less than 18 months)

Preparing you for a successful & risk-free VBAC.
