A Cesarean Section, commonly known as a C-section, is a surgical procedure used to deliver a baby when a vaginal birth poses risks to the mother or the baby’s well-being. Various factors may necessitate a C-section, including the baby being in a breech position, maternal medical conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes, fetus size, or a previous C-section. During the procedure, a horizontal or vertical incision is made in the lower abdomen and uterus, through which the baby is carefully delivered. Afterward, the incision is closed with stitches or staples, and the mother is monitored for any complications.
Recovery from a C-section typically takes longer than a vaginal birth, requiring the mother to stay in the hospital for a few days and to avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activity for several weeks. Pain medication may be prescribed to manage discomfort. While generally safe, C-sections carry risks such as bleeding, infection, and blood clots. Therefore, mothers need to discuss the risks and benefits with their doctor before deciding on a C-section, ensuring the best possible outcome for both themselves and their baby.
