Parents frequently have an uphill battle if they are considering a VBAC today. Knowing your options for labor including out-of-hospital birth locations are helpful.

VBAC has become a controversial issue today. However, new research on VBACs shows that going into labor on your own can increase your chances of a vaginal birth.

Even though a large percentage of mothers elect to have a repeat cesarean rather than a VBAC, for those wanting a trial of labor, there is renewed hope in reducing risks.

Studies show that one factor that helps with VBAC success is to go into labor without being induced. A previous labor that ended at 8 cm or later also helps.

In order to understand why the VBAC rate is lower today, it's important to see what the VBAC history is, what the trends are and where VBAC is headed.
