There was no difference in neonatal outcomes, although infants born through VBAC had a higher Apgar score. The prevalence of previa was higher post-repeat CS (10% vs. 4%). Perinatal mortality was uncommon (<1%) and was associated with emergent CS. The rate of low labor induction reduced the success of VBAC by 18% less. To sum up, VBAC is still a possibility to some women, and its success rate and maternal morbidity are higher when compared to repeat CS</span><span>.</span></p>
