If you need information to make your case for a Vaginal Birth after a Caesarean you have the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists on your side. This Los Angeles Times published This Story which also sites the March report by the National Institutes of Health. The Caesarean rate for hospitals in the United States is between 30 and 40 percent.
This came in my mailbox today!
Hi Kim! My name is Jennifer, and I was in your prenatal yoga class over the summer. I am the one who is a kindergarten teacher…hopefully you remember me! 
Anyway, I just wanted to express to you my extreme thankfulness and gratitude for a wonderful yoga session. I really enjoyed how you talked a lot about the birthing experience and gave helpful hints about delivery as well. I think that I had told you that with my first pregnancy, my water broke and then I did not go into labor on my own. They put me on Pitocin, and I just couldn’t handle the intense contractions that came with that drug and eventually I requested the epidural (against what I had originally hoped for).
After taking your class, I was reinspired to have a completely natural, drug-free delivery. My husband and I did not take any refresher birthing classes, nor did we have much time to practice our breathing techniques and everything else with our 2 1/2 year old daughter running around, so I was very nervous.
On Sunday, September 6, my water broke at 2:00 in the morning. I was already having some contractions the evening before, and when my water broke the contractions really escalated. We got to Henry Mayo hospital just after 3:00 in the morning (after dropping my daughter off with my brother). My husband was an absolute AMAZING labor coach! At 5:23am (just about 2 hours after arriving to the hospital), our wonderful son Luke was born. And I did it with absolutely NO drugs! It was the most amazing feeling, and I am so excited and proud that I chose to do it that way. The pushing was SO much easier, and I feel like I have recovered so much more quickly this time…what a difference!
So, I wanted to thank you so much for your inspiration and appreciate how grateful I am that you really stressed a “natural” delivery in our talks at class. I will always remember your terrific advice about questioning everything, and I will forward on this useful information to everyone I know going through pregnancy. I feel like I had the absolute BEST birthing experience ever, and I just want to tell everyone my positive experience (thanks to you!!).
Have a wonderful next yoga session, and thanks again for EVERYTHING!!!
Love, Jennifer
