What to expect during a C-section | Real Footage

Knowing what to expect during a C-section can help you prepare and feel more at ease about the procedure and your recovery. I'll take you through the procedure, risks and recovery.

A cesarean delivery (C-section) is used to deliver a baby through surgical incisions made in the abdomen and uterus.

Steps:
Abdominal + Uterine Incision: A gynaecologist makes surgical incisions in the abdomen and the uterus to deliver the baby.
Delivery: The baby will be delivered through the incisions. The doctor clears the baby's mouth and nose of fluids, then clamps and cuts the umbilical cord. The placenta is then removed from the uterus, and the incisions are closed with sutures.
