VBACs should be a priority for families and society
from Catholic Birth Podcast · host Catholic Birth Podcast
Vaginal Birth After Cesareans (VBAC) are still not a common occurrence in the United States. Why? Cesareans are life saving, but overused and have many negative impacts on mothers, babies, families and society. In this podcast Jenny discusses the history of c sections, the challenges in discussing such a sensitive topic and having non-judgemental conversations. She speaks on why we should be concerned about the primary c section rate increasing and why VBACs should be a priority in our country rather than care providers and family members deterring them. The Evidence on VBAC Why the Cesarean Rate Matter to the Church by Mary Haseltine
