VBAC Facts FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Card
These premium 100lb 3.5″ x 2″ matte finish business cards contain the answers to the most frequently asked VBAC questions. Due to their small size, they are convenient to carry and distribute without having bulky pamphlets in your pocket or purse. It is very easy to quickly pull one out of your pocket and hand it to a woman who:
-
has had a cesarean,
-
expressed interest in a VBAC,
-
is pregnant post-cesarean,
-
thinks VBAC is illegal,
-
is unaware of the risks of repeat cesareans,
-
wants to know what are the best books on birth to read, or
-
simply wants a VBAC, but doesn’t know where you start.
How many times have you run into a woman like this, and so what to say something, but can’t think of the right words? Or worse, said the wrong thing? VBAC can be a touchy subject and yet when someone expresses an interest in learning more, sometimes it can be hard to know where to start. The FAQ card solves that problem.
If they are not interested, they simply throw it away. However, if they are, this card provides basic information and further resources for them to start their own research.
Actual FAQ cards do not have a watermark.
Hello Jennifer
We met at the NIH VBAC Conference last year. I am very happy to inform you that the American edition of my book on VBAC has just been published : Birthing Normally After a Cesarean or Two – A Guide for Pregnant Women. The publisher is : Fresh Heart http://www.freshheart.co.uk/publising/
Please don’t hesitate to write me if you want more information about the book.
Thanks,
Hélène
Helene,
Congratulations on your book! That is so exciting! I look forward to reading it!
Warmly,
Jen
Hello, I am very interested in the VBAC card, but want to know that I am providing recent evidence-based information. Is there any way to know what the sources are for the info on this card? Thanks for any information.
Sarah,
I completely understand and feel the same way about the information I share. That is why I provide the citation for each statistic on the card even though it takes up quite a bit of space. Studies I reference on the card include Landon (2004) and Mercer (2006). You can look up each citation on the bibliography page: http://vbacfacts.com/bibliography.
Warmly,
Jen
I wa wondering if u have card templates that provide space for personal contact info? Or for a biz info?
Sarah,
That is a really great idea! The hard part is deciding what text to delete on the card to allow room!
I also have two PDF, letter sized handouts. The first is entitled “Quick Facts: Birth after Cesarean“. It’s one page. The front page is the narrative and the back page lists the bibliography. The second PDF is entitled “American Women Speak About VBAC” which includes quotes from women all over the USA sharing why the option of VBAC is important to them. I created for and distributed it at the March 2010 National Institutes of Health VBAC Conference.
These two handouts can easily accommodate individual personal contact info.
Hope this helps!
Jen
