Caesarean Delivery

When you are pregnant, it is important to prepare yourself mentally. Make yourself aware of both natural and surgical delivery processes. Your baby is delivered via an incision made in the abdomen and uterus during a C-section. If normal birth through the vagina is unsafe or when it involves health risks for both mother and the baby, doctors recommend a C-section delivery.

Reasons for Caesarean Delivery

Some situations make it absolutely necessary to have a cesarean section, like - Uterine fibroid or a pelvic fracture, or if your child is expected to have a congenital anomaly; - Cephalopelvic disproportion, which means the head or body of your baby is too large for safe, normal delivery through your pelvis or if the baby is underdeveloped, making it too small for the delivery; - Transverse position of your baby, meaning it is in horizontal or sideways position in the uterus; - Breech position, i.e. your baby’s feet or buttocks enter the pelvis first at the time of delivery; - You have a history of C-sections. It may also cause Placenta Previa, where blood vessels may tear up, resulting in serious bleeding and putting both of you in danger; - Multiple births; - Certain health issues like genetic herpes. Your gynaecologist may decide to perform an unexpected C-s...

Who is at Risk?

In most situations, a C-section operation is safer than a vaginal birth for both the mother and the child. An unanticipated C-section may occasionally be considered in the event of an emergency, such as when your baby's heart rate falls dangerously low. Like any other surgery, even C-section delivery involves certain risks. These include the following: - Infection - Blood loss - Bladder injury - Placental abnormalities in future pregnancies - Embolism, i.e. breakage of a blood clot and its entry into the bloodstream - Bowel injury - Fetal injury - Weakness of the uterine wall due to a cut - Risks associated with general anesthesia

Types of C-section Incisions

There are 3 types of Cesarean section incisions: Low transverse: This is also called a bikini incision because a low horizontal cut is made across the bikini line. Low vertical: This is similar to the transverse section, but a vertical cut is made across the lower abdomen instead of making a horizontal cut. High vertical: The shape of this incision is similar to that of a low vertical incision. However, the cut is made high up on the abdomen and across the stomach.

Preparation for Caesarean Delivery

Before a C-section, your doctor may advise you to do specific blood tests to check the number of red blood cells and assess the risk of anaesthesia complications. Even if your doctor has recommended a vaginal delivery, it is advisable that you talk to them once before the delivery, discussing the likelihood of a C-section.

Steps Involved in Caesarean Delivery

There are several steps involved in a c-section delivery, which may differ from one doctor to another or even from hospital to another. However, some generic ones include: - Showering at home with an antiseptic soap the night before and the morning of your C-section; - Not shaving your pubic hair within 24 hours of your C-section to avoid infection; - Having your abdomen cleansed at the hospital. To perform a cesarean section surgery, the doctor first gets you ready for anaesthesia, applies antiseptic on your belly, covers the incision site with a sterile drape, and raises a sterile curtain between your head and lower body. An incision will next be made through your skin and into your belly by the doctor. The procedure for an emergency caesarean is the same as for a scheduled one; however, it takes less time. If everything goes well and your baby is in good health, you can soon hold your newborn right after the anaesthetic effects wear off.

Recovery Care

A C-section takes longer to heal than a vaginal delivery. You may start to experience incisional and gastric discomfort after the effect of anesthesia is gone. You could find it difficult to inhale deeply or to turn your body easily and hit the pedals. Most women spend two to three days in the hospital following the delivery. After giving birth, you might want assistance getting out of bed for a few days. It might take 4 to 6 weeks to heal completely.

Success Rate of Cesarean Delivery

C-section deliveries are generally successful. According to current studies, every third child born in India is through a C-section delivery.
