Exactly Hoobley. When there aren't options given to the mother, when c/s is presented as the only choice... thats when there is a problem. I've heard women given reasons for repeat c/s which are just atrocious in my eyes, but the women is quite happy to repeat the c/s as she hasn't been given the risks associated with repeat c/s, only the risks associated with VBAC.
My hospital gave me a list to sign saying they showed me risks of repeat c/s which they gave me 5 minutes to read at 12 weeks PG and then never showed me it again. They never mentioned those risks again and if I hadn't read about it, I would never have known. I couldn't remember that...
