Cesarean Delivery

Cesarean Delivery

A Cesarean delivery (C-section) is a surgical procedure used to safely deliver a baby through an incision in the mother’s abdomen and uterus. It is performed when a normal vaginal delivery is not possible or poses risks to the mother or baby. At Queen’s Multispeciality Hospital, we provide expert C-section care with advanced medical support to ensure a safe delivery and smooth recovery.

Why is a C-Section Needed?

A C-section may be planned or performed as an emergency procedure in situations such as:

  • Complications in Labor – If labor is prolonged or the baby is in distress.
  • Baby’s Position – Breech (feet-first) or transverse (sideways) positioning.
  • Multiple Pregnancy – Twins or more may require a C-section for safety.
  • Placenta Issues – Placenta previa (covering the cervix) or placental abruption.
  • Previous C-Section – Some women may need a repeat C-section.
  • Medical Conditions – High blood pressure, diabetes, or infections that could affect vaginal birth.

How is a C-Section Performed?

  • Anesthesia – Usually spinal or epidural anesthesia is given to numb the lower body.
  • Surgical Incision – A small incision is made in the abdomen and uterus.
  • Baby’s Delivery – The baby is carefully delivered within minutes.
  • Closure – The uterus and abdomen are stitched back with precision.

Recovery After a C-Section

  • Mothers usually stay in the hospital for 2-4 days for post-surgical care.
  • Walking and light movement help in faster healing.
  • Pain management, proper rest, and a healthy diet support recovery.
  • Breastfeeding can start soon after delivery, with proper guidance.
