#317 | The Risk of Uterine Rupture: Breaking Down ACOG's VBAC Bulletin

Send us a text What"s the one question every woman wants to answer when considering a VBAC? Is it safe for me and my baby? In today"s episode, Cynthia & Trisha break down the available data on VBAC, why we should discard the term TOLAC, the actual risks of uterine rupture, whether induced with Pitocon versus a prostaglandin or having spontaneous labor versus expectant management. We present the few cases in which a woman should not choose to VBAC and help mothers understand their decisions should not be driven by statistics alone. If you are considering a VBAC, get a pen and paper and arm yourself with all the stats from this data-rich dialogue.  Also: Let"s get HavBAC to take!
