Abstract

Caesarean Section is one of the most common operative procedures in Obstetrics. It is carried out for the benefit of both mother and baby. Most Obstetricians will permit vaginal birth after a previous Caesarean section. We report the case of a 33-year old teacher, Gavida 3 Para 2+ 0, both alive with two previous Caesarean Sections came in active phase of labor at term. She had an unplanned successful vaginal birth. This case highlights the fact that vaginal delivery is possible after two previous Caesarean Sections if a careful selection of the patient is made.
