If you have an OB who's actually being supportive of VBAC, you are a very lucky mama! So many women have to jump through hoops, interview (and be bullied by) tons of doctors or midwives, and sometimes end up having to give birth unassisted at home because the medical community can be so unsupportive. Seriously, barring unforseen complications, VBAC is safer and easier to recover from for the vast majority of women.
