<p>She said that they used to have a formal VBAC ban for women who don't have a proven pelvis, and they are just now moving away from it- leaving it up to the doctor to judge it your pelvis is adequate for a TOL.</p>

Just got told I could have a VBAC
Just got told I could have a VBAC at this hospital - I do know they had a ban a few years ago, but my doc (Dr T) is very pro-VBAC and actually is my midwife’s "go to" doc :)
