Embracing Possibility, Empowering Birth Choices

At Butterfly Hospitals, we believe every mother deserves the opportunity to explore safe and informed birth options. Our experienced obstetric team supports eligible women in pursuing Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC)—a natural birthing option following a previous C-section—when it is medically advisable.

With state-of-the-art facilities, continuous monitoring, and a multidisciplinary approach, we are committed to offering safe, personalized care that supports your birth preferences while prioritizing your and your baby’s well-being.

What is VBAC?

Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC) refers to delivering a baby vaginally after having previously undergone a cesarean section. It is a viable and safe option for many women and can provide physical, emotional, and recovery-related benefits when successful.

Who is Eligible for VBAC?

Not every mother who had a cesarean in the past will be a candidate for VBAC. Your care team at Butterfly Hospitals will thoroughly evaluate your medical history and current health status before making a recommendation. You may be considered for VBAC if:

  • Your previous C-section involved a low transverse (horizontal) incision
  • The indication for the prior C-section is unlikely to recur (e.g., breech position)
  • You’ve had only one prior cesarean
  • You are in good overall health, with no contraindications to vaginal delivery
  • Your pregnancy is progressing normally without complications

VBAC Preparation at Butterfly Hospitals

Should you be eligible and choose to pursue VBAC, we walk with you every step of the way. Our preparation includes:

  • Frequent prenatal checkups to closely monitor maternal and fetal health
  • Collaborative birth planning, where you discuss your preferences with your doctor and prepare for both VBAC and emergency backup if needed
  • Diet, exercise, and lifestyle guidance to keep you healthy and strong for delivery
  • Comprehensive risk assessments, ensuring safety remains at the center of your care

Benefits of VBAC

If recommended and successful, VBAC can offer several important benefits, such as:

  • Avoidance of major surgery
  • Faster recovery and shorter hospital stay
  • Lower risk of infection, blood loss, and complications
  • No surgical scars or repeat incisions
  • Greater flexibility for future pregnancies

Your Safety is Our Priority

At Butterfly Hospitals, our obstetricians are specially trained to manage VBACs safely. We maintain 24/7 access to emergency surgical care, should a C-section become necessary during labor. Our team is equipped to act quickly and efficiently to protect both mother and child in every scenario.
