Study aim was to assess woman's satisfaction with vaginal birth after caesarean section (VBAC) and caesarean section after vaginal birth (CSAVD). Methods: A descriptive study was carried out at Postpartum Inpatient Ward and Labor and Delivery Unit of Mansoura University Hospital on 60 postpartum women, thirty of them had vaginal birth after a previous cesarean section and thirty had a cesarean section after vaginal birth. Their age ranged between 20 to 35 years, can read and write, and delivered a single full term live neonate. Two tools were used for data collection; a structured interview questionnaire to assess woman's general characteristics and Mackey scale to assess woman's childbirth satisfaction Results: Most of women (93.3%) in the VBAC group were satisfied with their childbirth experience compared to 43.3% in the CSAVD group (p < 0.001, X2 =18.266). Conclusion: Most women in the VBAC group were more satisfied with their childbirth experience compared to those in the CSAVD group. Recommendation: The maternity hospitals should encourage obstetricians and maternity nurses to counsel women with a previous CS to undergo VBAC trial in absence of contraindications.
