    OB Guidelines Appendix F: Delivery Following a Previous Cesarean Delivery

    Guideline
    If you have had one baby by cesarean section, you may have some questions about what happens in the next pregnancy. Each woman who has previously delivered by cesarean section must discuss the situation with her clinicians and decide to either A) plan a repeat cesarean, or B) plan a trial of labor with the goal of vaginal delivery. Both options have risks and benefits.
