“…Chen and Hancock showed that many women who underwent CS lacked sufficient information about their delivery options in subsequent pregnancies. The authors emphasized that not being aware of the recent scientific evidence of drawbacks and benefits of either trial of labor or repeat cesarean prevented these women from rethinking their preference .…”

The majority of pregnant women preferred vaginal delivery to cesarean section. Neither a higher Wijma Delivery Expectancy/Experience Questionnaire A score nor sociodemographic differences were important determinants of a preference for cesarean section or for an uncertain preference. On the other hand, previous cesarean section and certain preconceived maternal attitudes towards delivery were characteristic for these women.

Introduction The purpose of this integrative review was to synthesize the literature on women's perceived barriers and facilitators to achieving a vaginal birth after cesarean. Methods A search of Scopus and PubMed databases and relevant citations from 2000 to 2018 was conducted to identify resources meeting inclusion criteria. Conclusion drawing and verification were completed using data displays, data analysis, and comparison. Results Sixteen resources met inclusion criteria. Factors identified by women with a history of cesarean that act as facilitators or barriers to achieving a vaginal birth after cesarean included (1) individual factors (knowledge, body, and psychological), (2) social factors (culture and social support), and (3) systemic factors (perinatal care provider, health system, and financial). Some factors related to barriers and facilitators reflected opposing aspects of the same phenomenon on a continuum. Discussion Enhancing facilitators identified by women, while addressing perceived barriers, may increase access to labor after cesarean for women in the United States. Increasing access to labor after cesarean may subsequently improve women's experiences of care and decrease the US cesarean rate, positively affecting individual health outcomes and overall health of childbearing women in the United States.

“…Women could also, at counseling before delivery, have been guaranteed an unplanned CD in second labor if there were any signs of prolonged delivery. Preferences for elective second CD or TOLAC are multifactorial and contextual and can vary depending on background or socio‐economic status . Such selection effects were, however, partly eliminated by controlling for confounders in the multivariable analysis.…”
