Few local doctors will do VBACs (vaginal birth after a c-section).

Back in September 2008, Ledger-Enquirer columnist, Annie Addington wrote a great series of articles that investigated the rising Caesarean section rates here and across the country. She examined the pros and cons of having a caesarean versus a VBAC – or vaginal birth after Caesarean. Plus, she looked at what’s driving the rising trend toward Caesareans and what some women are doing about it.
