VBAC & Homebirth (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean)
Charli and Sarah talk about the highly important topic of VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean). The midwives break down the evidence to demonstrate that VBAC might actually come with less risks to some people than a repeat cesarean birth. Learn about how the midwives take care of people planning a VBAC in their care.
Much of the evidence mentioned comes from the incredible Jen Kamel with VBAC Facts: vbacfacts.com. Jen has helped thousands of birth professionals and parents around the world become clear about the evidence on VBAC and she’s a wonderful resource for anyone considering a VBAC for themselves or for anyone who is wanting to become a VBAC competent care provider.
Additionally, Rebecca Dekker with Evidence Based Birth offers her own episode on The Evidence on VBAC at: evidencebasedbirth.com.
