I'm quite upset about this month's news from ICAN. Almost half of the hospitals polled in Massachusetts have either out right bans on VBACs or simply have de-facto bans because their rules are so strict no practitioner will perform them.
So where does this leave a woman in Massachusetts that had a cesarean previously but wants a vaginal birth? Either driving further to a hospital and practitioner that will support her, or to find a homebirth midwife that will support an HBAC: Home Birth After Cesarean.
