According to the "American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists", the chances of normal delivery even after cesarean delivery increase in women who meet all the following criteria:

  • The incision made in your uterus during cesarean should be horizontal and less deep instead of being T-shaped or vertical. If this incision is T-shaped or vertical, then the chances of uterine rupture increase. 
  • Your pelvis should be large enough to bring the baby out safely at the time of birth. The doctor can estimate the size of your pelvis after doing some tests.
  • You should not have undergone any surgery on the uterus before, such as myomectomy to remove uterine fibroids, etc. 
  • Your uterus should not have ruptured before. 
  • You should not have any medical or obstetric problems, such as placenta previa or large fibroids. These increase the risk of normal delivery.

By choosing normal delivery after cesarean delivery, you are protected from stomach surgery and other related risks.Due to excessive bleeding in cesarean delivery, blood transfusion may be required. In some rare cases, it can also lead to hysterectomy (surgical process of removing the uterus). Also, during this process, there is a risk of various infections and damage to organs.In C-section delivery, you have to stay in the hospital for a longer time than in normal delivery and it also takes more time for you to recover, due to which you have to face a lot of trouble.

 

If you are thinking of giving birth to more children in the future, then you should know that every cesarean delivery increases the risk of having umbilical cord problems like placenta previa and placenta accreta during pregnancy in the future.

If you face difficulty in normal delivery, then it is possible that even after being in labor pain for hours, the baby may not come out and you may have to undergo cesarean delivery. This is called unplanned cesarean delivery.

In unplanned cesarean delivery, the risk of other problems related to surgery increases, and due to excessive bleeding, you also have the possibility of needing blood transfusion. In some rare cases, you may also have to face hysterectomy. This also increases the possibility of infection in the uterus and incision wound.

An unplanned cesarean delivery also puts the unborn baby at risk of long-term nerve damage or death. The chances of this happening are very low, but still the risks of an unplanned cesarean delivery are much higher than those of a normal delivery or a planned cesarean delivery.

Vibration after cesarean (VBAC) can be a safe option, but there are a few things to keep in mind. First of all, it is important to know which cut was made during the previous cesarean, as a transverse cut of the lower uterine segment is usually considered safe for VBAC. This option should not be considered without the advice and consent of the doctor. It is important to have regular medical checkups to understand any potential risks during pregnancy and at the time of delivery. Apart from this, proper nutrition, light exercise, and following stress-reducing techniques can help prepare the body. Selecting the right healthcare team and good preparation play a vital role in the success of a VBAC.
