Easy guys. You both, We all are ob.gyns. We all saw things like that. There is no absolute contra indication for a VBAC, and no absolute indication for an elective CS. I'd say let's leave the decision to the pt, with a good informed consent.

Merry Xmas anyway.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
