Abstract
This information pamphlet is for women who are currently pregnant and have had a cesarean birth before.
Women who have had a baby by cesarean usually have a choice about how they will give birth to their next baby. They can plan to have another cesarean birth (called an elective or planned repeat cesarean birth), or they can plan to have the baby vaginally (called a vaginal birth after cesarean, or VBAC).
You can read this booklet, discuss it with your doctor or midwife, and ask any questions to help you decide whether planning a VBAC or a repeat cesarean birth is best for you.

Abstract
At some point, children become curious about babies. This usually happens when a new baby arrives in a family (or is about to arrive and all the grown-ups are talking about it). But it can happen at other times, too.
Children want to know where babies come from in general. They also want to know, specifically, where they came from. These aren't the same question, and they don't have the same answer.
One answer articulates the unique story of their conception and birth, while the other offers the basics of how all human beings are born. Both stories are valuable. The first connects a child to their personal life history as well as their familial, cultural, and ethnic background. The second connects all children to each other; reminding us that while differences are important, and shouldn't be erased, shared humanity is a pretty cool thing, too.
This book helps adults tell children that second story. It doesn't include information about sexual intercourse, donor insemination, fertility treatments, surrogacy, or adoption. But it creates a space for you to share as few or as many of those details as you like.
Few adults are automatically comfortable talking about these things with children. For this reason, I've developed a simple reader's guide for parents. You can download it for free at www.what-makes-a-baby.com.
