When considering TOLAC/VBAC, consider the following acronym, PLANE.
P- position of the baby. Vertex is ideal. Breech is associated with higher risk of uterine rupture.

L- lower uterine segment thickness (LUST). Greater than 3mm reduces risk of uterine rupture.

A- augmentation, induction or natural labor. Natural labor reduces risk of uterine rupture. STRIPPING MEMBRANES IS CONSIDERED A NATURAL FORM OF INDUCTION OR AUGMENTATION OF LABOR.

N-number of babies and neonatal weight. TWIN VBAC is possible but has a higher risk of complications. Baby weight less than 4000g is associated with a higher success rate and lower risk of uterine rupture.

E- experience and success rate of provider. 70% is considered average. Many providers have very low success rates and refuse to provide their stats.

Patients thinking about VBAC should consider the following:

1. Experience and success rate of TOLAC/VBAC and TOLA2C/VBA2C of the OBGYN

2. Natural Labor rather than Induction or Augmentation

3. Spontaneous rupture of membranes or Artificial Rupture of Membranes rather than the use of Pitocin

4. No use of Misoprostol

5. The labor room should be close to the OR

6. Epidural line in place

7. Ultrasound confirmation of placenta location: Anterior, Fundal or Posterior

8. Lower Uterine Segment Thickness (LUST) 3mm or greater

9. Estimated fetal weight 4000g or less

When the 39 week elective induction rule was first recommended, OBGYNs refused to follow the guidelines despite ACOG/SMFM support. Basically they were forced to change based on the insistence of the Neonatologists and insurance companies that forced Hospital policy changes that tooks years to make it the standard of care. | Diary of a Doula

Doulas help provide a nurturing and supportive environment for a patient during labor and delivery especially considering that most providers are only present for a short period of the actual labor process. But there is a distinction between advocacy and informed consent. As your Doctor, we are also your advocate and our job is to properly inform you. When it becomes "necessary" for your doula to give you the medical information that we have not properly and clearly explained, then as your OBGYN, we have failed you.

The Webster Technique is promoted by chiropractors to help vert a breech presentation to a head down/ vertex presentation. There is even a certification program offered by chiropractic organizations for this technique. However, there are no peer reviewed studies supporting its efficacy especially considering the fact that by 37 weeks 94% of babies are in the vertex presentation. So, doing nothing and allowing the baby to turn on its own has better stats than the Webster Technique. barrington

VBAC calculators are no more accurate at determining the success of a TOLAC/VBAC than flipping a coin. The most important determining factor of TOLAC/VBAC is the experience of the provider.
