Cesarean section is often seen as an unnecessary medical intervention or even as a personal failure for a woman. Though one in four babies born in the United States and Europe comes into the world with the help of surgery, this option is often feared by expectant mothers. In Cesarean Section: Understanding and Celebrating Your Baby's Birth, women's health specialists Drs. Michele Moore and Caroline de Costa emphasize the joy of delivering a healthy baby, however that is best achieved. They explain why Cesarean births are sometimes preferable to vaginal delivery for both mother and baby, and they help women understand the issues behind the decision to perform the procedure. From anesthesia, surgery, and recovery through at-home care of mother and child, the authors offer reassurance and practical information for all mothers and mothers-to-be. They also discuss the latest findings on postpartum depression and planning for future births, including the possibility of vaginal birth after a Cesarean section. For every woman who has a planned–or unplanned–Cesarean section, this book provides the information they need to alleviate their fears and come to value this delivery option.
