More Information
What is Vaginal Delivery after Prior Cesarean Delivery?
Vaginal Delivery after Prior Cesarean Delivery is a procedure where an expectant mother attempts to deliver her baby vaginally instead of with a second cesarean section. It is also known as VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean).
Why would I get a Vaginal Delivery after Prior Cesarean Delivery?
The likely reason someone would consider the procedure is to experience the sense of normalcy that comes with a natural childbirth, or to avoid potential risks associated with repeat cesareans. It is possible for most women who have had a single prior cesarean to attempt a VBAC as long as there are no other additional factors that would make the attempt too dangerous.
What happens during a Vaginal Delivery after Prior Cesarean Delivery?
The procedure begins with the pregnant woman being admitted for labor and delivery. The baby's heartbeat is monitored with a fetal heart rate monitor, and an IV is put in place to ensure proper hydration. If a hard labor pattern is observed, a cesarean section may be recommended if it appears that the baby is in distress. Otherwise, the labor proceeds and the baby is delivered by the mother's own efforts.
What to expect after a Vaginal Delivery after Prior Cesarean Delivery?
The recovery after a VBAC is usually quite rapid; most women feel better within a few days and can typically return to normal activities within a few weeks. Depending on the method of delivery, the mother may experience some soreness and discomfort, but this should subside as the healing progresses.
Conclusion
Vaginal Delivery after Prior Cesarean Delivery is a procedure that offers women the opportunity to attempt a vaginal delivery after a prior cesarean delivery. If successful, this can provide the expectant mother with the sense of normalcy and freedom that comes with a natural childbirth. Post-delivery recovery is typically fast, although the mother may experience some discomfort for a few weeks.
