This covers the delivery itself when a person gives birth vaginally after having had a cesarean delivery in the past, sometimes called a VBAC. It may include an episiotomy or the use of forceps if needed during delivery, but it covers only the birth, not the pregnancy check-ups before or the follow-up care after.
