Vaginal delivery is always our first choice, and it’s a viable choice for many women. It’s the most common and safest type of delivery. For women who are low-risk, with normal pregnancies that don’t have complications, natural childbirth is a great option.

During the vaginal delivery, our goal is that the baby delivers without any need for intervention from us. However, if needed, we’ll use forceps or vacuum delivery to help guide the baby safely through the birth canal.

It was once believed that after a woman had a C-section, she could only have C-sections for any new deliveries. Today 60% – 80% of women who try a vaginal birth after C-section (VBAC) are successful. Check out our blog, VBAC – Am I a Good Candidate for more information.
