"Vaginal Birth After Cesarean is what VBAC stands for. It is a vaginal birth after one or more cesareans. More than 80% of women will be able to have a VBAC.
According to Midwifery Today (most recent issue, Winter No 36 page 47) ACOG recently updated their opinion on VBAC and stated "VBAC is safer than repeat cesarean and VBAC with more than one previous cesarean does not pose any increased risk". The Guidelines can be obtained from: ACOG, 409 12th St SW, Washington DC 20024."
