    It's my understanding that hospitals consider VBAC high-risk in terms of birth where they may insist on all manner of nonsensical conditions (EFM, time limits etc) but it shouldn't preclude you from having midwifery care if that is what you are seeking. Depending on the hospital, it may exclude you from a birth centre, where you would probably be most likely to achieve your VBAC (other than at home).
