Planned Mode of Delivery 

In most cases, the plan will be for a normal vaginal delivery. Women who have previously delivered by C-section will be counselled on the pros and cons of trial of labour after C-section (TOLAC), if they are eligible, versus elective repeat C-section.

Women who are interested in maternal-choice C-section should mention this to their OB, who will go over the risks and benefits. They can also watch this video prepared by BC Women’s Hospital.
