a significant portion of hormones that help adapt to life outside the womb. Other experts argue that a cesarean section does not affect the baby's health and may even be preferable in some cases.
When a baby is born by Caesarean section, it can cause many questions and doubts for parents. However, as we see, in modern medicine this is no longer as rare as it used to be. The operation is performed both in emergency cases and according to indications that were initially established by the doctor.
Absolute indications for caesarean section are those that do not allow the possibility of spontaneous childbirth. This may be due to placental abnormality, transverse position of the fetus, preeclampsia and eclampsia, genital herpes, pregnancy after artificial insemination and other special conditions.
Relative indications for cesarean section require additional assessment of the situation and a doctor’s decision on the need for surgery. These may be severe diseases of the mother, such as hypertension, diseased kidneys, heart, spinal cord surgery, etc., as well as weak labor, multiple pregnancies, discrepancy in the size of the fetus and the mother’s pelvis, and other cases.
Although caesarean sections are performed much more frequently today than in the past, they remain an operation with risks and consequences. For the mother, this can mean a painful and protracted recovery period, as well as increased risk during subsequent births. For the baby, the consequences of a cesarean section may be less obvious, but they still exist.
Caesarean section is not always panic and fear. The operation can be a lifesaver for the life and health of the mother and child. However, as in any case, you need to carefully weigh the pros and cons and make a decision together with your doctor. It is important to remember that spontaneous childbirth is a natural process that requires preparation and attention, but a caesarean section is not a death sentence, but one of the tools of modern medicine that can save the life and health of mother and child.
