Support for VBAC
Many families discover home birth as an option after having a previous birth that didn’t go as planned. It can be challenging to find a provider that supports Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC). If you’re looking for respectful and empowering care, you’ve come to the right place!
While being a life-saving surgery, cesarean sections are meant to only be performed in cases of serious complications and emergencies. Having quality individualized prenatal care and education can help you avoid an unnecessary repeat c-section. During your pregnancy we will address any previous birth trauma or fears you may have about your upcoming birth, build a supportive community and use available resources, connect with your body and baby, and build up confidence. Even families who end up having a repeat belly birth report feeling completely different about their experience after having received midwifery care during their pregnancy and birth.
Research about VBAC and HBAC (Home Birth After Cesarean) is ongoing. “The data show that low-risk women who plan a VBAC at home have a high rate of success and a low rate of complications.” If you would like to read more about this, here is a great article with statistics collected from midwife attended births.
