In most cases, a C-section is safer for the mother and the infant than a vaginal delivery. An unplanned C-section operation may occasionally be advised in the event of a medical 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

There are 3 types of Cesarean section incisions: Low transverse: A low horizontal cut is made across the bikini line in this procedure, which is also known as a bikini incision. Low vertical: This procedure resembles a transverse section, except a vertical cut is made across the lower abdomen rather than a horizontal one. High vertical: This incision has a form that resembles a low vertical incision. However, the stomach is sliced crosswise and high up on the abdomen.
Your doctor can suggest that you undergo certain blood tests prior to a C-section to monitor the number of red blood cells and determine the likelihood of anaesthetic issues. Even if your doctor has advised a vaginal birth, discuss the possibility of a C-section long before your due date.
A C-section can be done in various ways, but most involve these steps: - 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. Your gynecologist may prepare you for anesthesia, bathe your belly with an antiseptic, cover the incision site with a sterile drape, and raise a sterile curtain between your head and lower body before performing a caesarean section surgery. The doctor will next create a skin incision that extends into your belly. While the technique is the same for both types of caesareans, planned ones take longer. Soon after birth, you may hold your baby.
Compared to a vaginal delivery, a C-section needs more time for recovery. When the anesthetic wears off, you will begin to feel discomfort around the incision, and gas pains may occur, too. some other challenges may include: taking deep breaths moving your body getting out of bed You may need to stay at the hospital for the next 2-3 days after the delivery. Consider getting assistance for 4-6 weeks after getting home as well.

C-section is no different from vaginal birth in terms of breastfeeding your baby, which means you can breastfeed your newborn after a cesarian birth, too.
If you wish to have a C-section for non-medical reasons or due to fear of birth and labor, you can discuss your concerns about this with your doctor before your delivery.
