Had a C-section before and wondering if a normal delivery after a C-section is possible this time? For many women, the answer is yes. This is known as VBAC — Vaginal Birth After Cesarean, and the attempt to achieve it is called a TOLAC — Trial of Labour After Cesarean. Success depends on factors like the type of uterine incision used previously, with the low horizontal cut carrying the lowest risk. The biggest concern to discuss with your doctor is uterine rupture, a rare but serious complication where the old C-section scar opens under labour pressure. With the right hospital support and a thorough review of your surgical history, VBAC can offer faster recovery, a shorter hospital stay, and real benefits for your baby — making it a safe option worth exploring rather than assuming "once a C-section, always a C-section."
