Summary |
Have you had a caesarean and are unsure of what your options are for your next birth? Do you want to have a vaginal birth but have been told "once a caesarean, always a caesarean"? Are you a birth worker and want to support women in their next birth after caesarean choices? In this book Hazel Keedle explores the research around repeat caesarean and vaginal birth after caesarean (VBAC). Hazel introduces and explains the importance of the four factors to having a better birth. Using research from her PhD, Hazel gives practical advice for women and their support people on planning for a better birth. The book also includes birth stories from 15 women across the globe, from Australia to Europe and the USA. Their stories are varied and deeply personal and all planned for a better birth after caesarean. |
