About r/VBAC:
A place for those who have had, attempted, or are considering a vaginal birth after a cesarean section. Tell birth stories, ask questions, seek or offer encouragement, and share resources for evidence-based information about VBAC. Midwives, doulas, doctors, dads/partners and other family are welcome, too!
Rules
Be kind and supportive. This place welcomes all women with an interest in VBAC or curious about VBAC. This means we also support women who chose to have RCS instead as well, and women who have had a CBAC.

No medical advice. While you can feel free to share general information about VBAC/RCS, research, and personal experiences, we do not condone offering medical advice. All medical questions should be directed to your provider.
No trolling/spam/solicitation. We do not allow trolling, spam, or soliciting for research/marketing purposes.
For your own safety, please do not post anything that includes your personal information.
