7. Comments:
VBAC policy at this hospital is up in the air right now-no formal ban but is considering it. It's a case by case basis with the one dr. who will do them (for instance, only if it was daytime and the OR staff was there, etc.). The nurse I spoke with was hedgy and did not seem comfortable speaking with me about VBAC's.
