Description

In today’s episode, I'm diving into an important but often overlooked factor that can make all the difference in your VBAC journey: nurse staffing. You might not have considered how hospital staffing levels can influence your VBAC success, but research shows that more nurses could mean fewer C-sections

I dive into:

  • Why your hospital’s nurse-to-patient ratio matters more than you think.
  • How staffing levels can affect your labor and VBAC success.
  • Steps you can take to ensure you have the support you need during labor.
