If you had your baby by cesarean birth (sometimes called “cesarean delivery”, “c-section”, or “CS”), you can still have a vaginal birth in your next pregnancy. This is called a Trial of Labour after Cesarean (TOLAC) or a Vaginal Birth after Cesarean (VBAC). What makes a VBAC safe and successful, and benefits and risks of VBAC are listed. The French version of this pamphlet 1891, "Choix d’accouchement après une césarienne", is also available.
