Education Consultant, Huron County Health Unit i For years doctors have told women who have had Cesarean sections that they would have to deliver all future babies the same way. Perhaps this was based on a rule postulated in 1916 which said• "Once 'a Cesarean, always a Cesarean". This idea may have caused the C -Section rate in Canada to triple between 1970 and 1983. In October, 1985, a nation-wide committee of obstetricians and other experts met to consider safe ways to reduce the number of cesareans be- ing perfot med in this country. On the basis of convincing data, they con- cluded that vaginal birth after_ cesareansection could be safely recommended to the majority of women as long as they satisfied cer- tain • prerequisites. These prere- quisites Were that they had had a healthy pregnancy, that they had a horizontal and not a vertical cut into their uterus with the previous section, that they are now carrying a single baby in the normal head down posi- • tion. and finally that the reason for the first section was not a recurring one. For women who have had two or more cesarean sections. recent studies have shown good success rates with a vaginal birth. but the finat'rc'sttlts tfi'tt'Tt(t Ver siii. in fact. most of the reasons a cesarean section is done the first time (10 not tend to repeat themselves the second time around. These include prolonged or difficult labour, failure of the cervix to open up• the baby's heart rate dropping during labour, and even the pelvis being too small for the baby's head. Vaginal birth after cesarean, also called VBAC tpronounced VEE - back i has many distinct advantages over a repeat cesarean. Since a sec- tion is a major abdominal surgery. 11 has two to four times the risk to the mother that a vaginal delivery does.

Mildred Thomson, Olive Thomson and Doris Sillery, as well as the birth of a baby to deal with, a cesarean mother has to cope with more pain and weakness follow- ing delivery. Moreover, some doctors may fail to realize the devastating impact a C- section may have on a women emo-- tionally and psychologically. As delighted as women are to have their babies safe and sound. they often feel a confusing mixture of shock and deep disappointment after the sec- tion. A woman may grieve for her Toss of control, her loss of the experience of a normal birth, her loss of team- work with her mate during labour, and the loss of early contact with.her baby. For most women, the opportunity to have a normal birth after a cesarean is an enormously gratifying and heal- ing experience and should be all(' ' ed if at all possible.
