Clinical framing -- the linguistic manner in which clinical information is presented -- can influence patient understanding and decision-making, with important implications for healthcare outcomes. Obstetrics is a high-stakes domain in which physicians counsel patients on delivery mode choices such as vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) and repeat cesarean section (RCS), yet counseling language remains underexplored in large-scale clinical text analysis. In this work, we analyze physician counseling language in 2,024 obstetric history and physical narratives for a rigorously defined cohort of patients for whom both VBAC and RCS were clinically viable options. To control for confounding due to medical contraindications, we first construct a VBAC-eligible cohort using structured clinical data supplemented by a large language model (LLM)-based extraction pipeline constrained to grounded, verbatim evidence from free-text narratives. We then apply a zero-shot LLM framework to categorize counseling segments into predefined framing categories capturing how physicians linguistically present delivery options. Our analysis reveals a significant difference in counseling framing distributions between VBAC and RCS notes; risk-focused language accounts for a substantially larger share of counseling segments in RCS documentation than in VBAC, with category-level differences confirmed by statistical testing, highlighting the value of controlled LLM-based framing analysis in obstetric care.
