VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Caesarean)

We believe in empowering women to make informed choices about their birthing experiences. For mothers who have previously undergone a caesarean section (C-section) and wish to have a vaginal birth after caesarean (VBAC), we provide comprehensive care, guidance, and medical expertise to ensure a safe and fulfilling birthing journey.

Why Choose Vaginal Birth or VBAC?

A vaginal birth offers multiple health benefits for both mother and baby, ensuring a quicker recovery and a lower risk of complications compared to a repeat C-section. At Rawal Natural Birthing Centre, we prioritize evidence-based maternity care, supporting first-time mothers, mothers with previous vaginal births, and mothers planning a VBAC.

How Rawal Natural Birthing Centre Supports VBAC

1. Evidence-Based Maternity Care

We follow internationally recognized guidelines for labor progression, interventions, and VBAC safety.
Our team ensures medical interventions are used only when necessary, allowing the natural birthing process to unfold smoothly.

2. VBAC Eligibility Assessment

Each woman’s previous C-section history is carefully evaluated to determine suitability for VBAC.
We assess factors such as type of uterine incision, previous labor experience, overall maternal health, and pregnancy conditions.

3. Continuous Monitoring & Emergency Preparedness

Continuous fetal monitoring ensures the baby’s well-being without unnecessary interventions.
If a medical emergency arises, our on-site surgical team is prepared for a safe, family-friendly C-section if needed.

Preparing for a Successful VBAC

To maximize VBAC success, we recommend:

✔ Prenatal Education: Attend childbirth classes to learn about labor, pain relief, and vaginal birth techniques.

✔ Regular Exercise: Engage in light physical activities such as walking, prenatal yoga, swimming, and pelvic floor exercises to strengthen the body for labor.

✔ Healthy Diet: A balanced diet rich in proteins, iron, and essential vitamins ensures optimal maternal and fetal health.

✔ Mental Preparation: Practice positive affirmations, guided meditation, and visualization techniques to build confidence and reduce fear.

✔ Birth Plan Discussion: Work with our team to develop a personalized VBAC birth plan, addressing concerns, preferences, and emergency protocols if needed.
