Bring Back VBAC to NWA!

Here's another great development for normal, mother-friendly birth in Northwest Arkansas. A local mother has created a website dedicated to bringing VBAC back to our area as a viable and available option for women who have had a previous cesarean section.

Please check out www.bringbackvbac.org and speak out on the forum and blog dedicated to the specific issues surrounding VBAC bans in our local hospitals. Get involved! Send the link to all of your friends who have had a previous cesarean, and even those who haven't. We are all impacted when hospital and insurance company policies undermine the rights of birthing women.
