Abstract:

With rising Cesarean Section (CS) rates worldwide, the importance of safe, evidence-based alternatives such as Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (Vbac) has come into sharper focus. Midwives play a central role in promoting and supporting VBAC, offering not only clinical expertise but also emotional reassurance and patient-centered education. This paper explores the role of midwives in advancing VBAC practices, the outcomes associated with midwifery-led care, and the various institutional and cultural challenges that affect implementation. Drawing from recent research, guidelines, and field observations, this paper underscores how empowering midwives can lead to improved maternal outcomes and greater birthing satisfaction.
