Is VBAC safer than repeat cesarean?
Women who have had a previous vaginal delivery may find that a vaginal birth after a cesarean (VBAC) is safer than a repeat cesarean.
What is the disadvantage of VBAC?
The Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC) procedure has some drawbacks, including the risk of uterine rupture due to a prior C-section scar, the need for special equipment during labor, and increased surveillance of the baby's heartbeat and labor contractions, which can cause injury to both the mother and fetus.
Which type of delivery is best?
Vaginal delivery is recommended by medical professionals as the safest method of childbirth, involving labour, birth, and placenta delivery, offering a personalized experience for the mother, baby, and partner.
Which delivery is painless?
A painless delivery, often referred to as epidural analgesia, is a form of regional anesthesia that involves the administration of low-dose medications into the epidural space using a catheter in order to alleviate the discomfort that is experienced throughout the process of natural labour.
