Hi Kirsten, I'm a 3rd year BMid @ VU. You probably already know about The Guide to Effective Care in Pregnancy & Childbirth (Enkin et al), but they have a fantastic chapter called "Labor and birth after previous cesarean section" that's available free online at http://www.maternitywise.org/guide/
Here are a few consumer booklets about C/S: http://www.maternitywise.org/mw/topics/cesarean/booklet.html http://www.birthrites.org/BookletIndex.html Also, there is some great support & information groups: * EBAC - Empowered Birth After Caesarean We are a group of mothers living in Melbourne, Victoria who have birthed our children via caesarean section. Some of us have gone on to have VBACs, others planned positive caesarean sections. We meet approximately every second month in our homes to discuss with others our stories and to share information andencouragement about choices for future births. Dates for 2004 are: * August 18th * September 11th - National Day of Caesarean Awareness * November 17th Please call Sarah 9557 2789 / 0418 331 824 or Rachel 9459 7374 / 0407 357 963 for further information and for the venues.
