About the Book
Once a cesarean, always a cesarean? Not quite!

Have you had a cesarean section (c-section) and are you pregnant again? Is your doctor or hospital trying to force you to undergo another c-section, just because you've had one previously? Are they spewing statistics about the potential consequences of Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC), but not telling you how dangerous another c-section can be?

Across the country and the world, women are being forced to undergo major abdominal surgery against their wishes, often for the convenience and profits of the doctors and hospitals. Yes, a c-section is often billed at much higher rates than a vaginal delivery!

Would it surprise you to know that many doctors do, in fact, support VBACs in healthy women, but are instead allowing the hospital and their own insurance company to dictate the medical care you're about to receive? That's right! Your doctor's liability insurance company, not your physician, may be directing your care right now!

In these pages, you'll read true stories from women who refused to submit to the medical community's threats and fear-tactics. These courageous moms instinctively knew what was best for their babies and themselves and, after having a prior c-section, successfully birthed their babies
vaginally.

The practice of forcing a c-section on a woman and her baby violates a woman's basic rights and can very well result in harm to the baby and/or mother.

About the Author
Angela Hoy Angela Hoy was stunned and angered when she was told she would not be permitted to birth her fifth child vaginally, even though she'd had three successful vaginal births and only one previous c-section. Her research into this ludicrous practice revealed a nationwide trend of hospitals forcing women to have major, and often unnecessary, surgery against their wishes. Her pleas for help led her to other women who had already successfully done what Angela wanted to do, have a VBAC! Their courageous, sometimes painful, and often humorous birth stories appear herein.

Angela's five children (three birthed the old-fashioned way, one c-section and a VBAC) are pictured at left: Zach, Mason, Max, Ali and Frank
