| Vaginal Birth After Cesarean |
VBAC Empowerment VBAC vs. Repeat Cesarean The CDC says that babies are 3 times more likely to die when birthed via cesarean section! Cesareans increase the risk of the mother dying by 3 to 4 times! Common causes of maternal death today are hemorrhage, infection, post-operative blood clots and adverse reactions to anesthesia. More U.S. Women are Dying In Maryland in 2007, 3 women died due to complications from cesarean section - one at 5 days pospartum due to infection, one at 7 days pospartum due to blood clots in her legs, and one in her recovery room immediately after surgery! Sadly, in 2008, another mother died after giving birth via cesarean section. However, NO low-risk mothers died after natural childbirth in a home, hospital or area birthing center birth including women attempting VBAC. What to do if your hospital/doctor won't do a VBAC on you Midwifery Today, Issue 78 (Summer 2006) Barbara Stratton of ICAN of Baltimore tells women how to protest a VBAC denial. |
