NEW YORK— February 20, 2018—Morgan James’s new release, Give Birth a Chance: How to Prepare for an Empowered VBAC by Ilia Blandina, empowers women to seek a natural birth, even after having had a cesarean section. Written by a professional midwife with decades of experience, this guidebook addresses the common concerns women have when considering a vaginal birth and helps them set up an effective birth plan that will lead to a safe, healthy delivery.
Many women are pressured into a cesarean section because their labor is taking too long by textbook standards, or because they’ve given birth via c-section before. While a c-section is sometimes necessary due to health risks, doctors often push women to this choice needlessly, when they could and would prefer to have a perfectly safe natural birth. Give Birth a Chance teaches women to trust their body and intuition when it comes to giving birth, and helps them overcome their fears of having a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC).
Having facilitated the births of over 5,000 babies in her midwifery career, and having given birth to four children of her own, Ilia Blandina knows firsthand the safety concerns every mother faces when it comes to delivery. Through her experience, Blandina has found that vaginal birth is typically the healthiest, most beneficial option for mothers and their babies, and that this route is possible far more often than many doctors let on. In Give Birth a Chance, she helps mothers overcome their emotional triggers from having had a c-section, offers pain management exercises, and teaches parents how to develop a birth plan that ensures they can reach their natural birth goal. Whether the reader has had a c-section before or is a first time mother, Give Birth a Chance: How to Prepare for an Empowered VBAC eases her natural birth worries and empowers her to trust her body’s instincts.
