C Section Risk - Cesarean Section InformationIt was assumed that Julius Caesar was born through a c section or cesarean section. Thus it was named after him. C section is a surgical procedure in which the baby was taken from the mother through an incision in the mother's abdomen and uterus. C section is on the rise in US and the US ranks 15 in infant mortality rate currently. It was reported earlier this month that a French study found that undergoing a c section puts women at three times the risk of dying than with vaginal birth. Although the c section has become a somewhat popular birth option, it appears to be much more risky than traditional birth. This finding is not surprising. There are many risks to a baby from a cesarean section. The most common are a lack of alertness, respiratory distress syndrome, drug complications and some other risks. Many women have become very apprehensive when thinking about the birthing process. Many older generations parents are from families of more than ten children. It was normal for couples in many previous generations to have numerous children. It amazes me that so many women were able to bring so many lives into the world. It is a wonder more of these women did not die. Although our medical technology has advanced leaps and bounds since the days of our grandparents but pregnancy can still be life threatening. Many young mothers have delivered all the children by c section and their last experience with childbirth nearly killed them. Such mothers have been warned against having any more children. For many mothers to be, it is the childbirth, not the child that distresses them. They want children one day but do not feel as though as ready. One of the reasons is they are not ready to have a child is the fact that discussions about childbirth make them uncomfortable. In the age of surgical reality television, who hasn't seen a live birth or c section on TV? Many people having witnessed the reality of childbirth, associate more bad things with the process of child birth than beautiful things. Many women postpone pregnancy for many more years. The thought of a difficult birth or having to undergo a c section makes them want to avoid pregnancy completely. It is the beauty of a mother's sacrifice of her own body for the life and love of her baby. It truly is a sacrifice. Every mother puts her life in danger to carry and birth her child. Because of this danger of c section, it is always be knowledgeable regarding the process of child birth. Cesarean section must be avoided whenever possible. Normal child birth through the virginal is the best way. However most babies can be delivered normally, about 5 percent of births necessitate a c section delivery in order to save the life of the mother or baby.
