A cesarean section | known as a C-section | is a surgery to deliver a baby via the abdomen

A cesarean section, or a C-section, is a surgery to deliver a baby via the abdomen. A c-Section occurs when a physician determines it to be a safer delivery option for the mother, baby, or both. Mothers may also choose to have a plant C-section, called AN ELECTIVE SURGERY, usually scheduled at 39 weeks of pregnancy. Also, women who have given birth via a cesarean section are often advised to give birth via a C-Section for the next baby. Common indications for C-Section include: Labor Dystocia: Labor Dystocia can occur when the baby's head is too big to fit through the pelvis. Another indication for C-Section is placenta previa when the placenta wholly or partially covers the opening of the uterus. Sometimes The baby is in breach position, so the feet are down instead of the head down. A prolapse of the umbilical cord or fetal distress before full cervical dilation can result in a loss of oxygen to the fetus and may even result in a stillbirth. Also, when a mom has twins or even more babies at the same time is usually an indication of a cesarean section.
