Cesarean deliveries are major surgeries no doubt about that. It has saved lives in many ways. As much advantage as this is, a woman could also run the risk of bleeding, infection, longer hospital stay which could be very costly. It could also lead to more cesarean with feature pregnancy. 

A survey poll by women that have experienced both normal and cesarean delivery says that, it took them longer to bounce back to their pre-pregnancy body after a cesarean than the normal delivery. 

The team of health professionals at the Birthplace in the University of Minnesota Masonic Children’s Hospital are working and committed to doing everything possible in reducing unnecessary cesareans. —

The Masonic Children’s hospital is one of the 21 nationwide in the reducing Primary Cesarean project. A project of the American College of Nurse-Midwives with the goal to reduce the incidence of cesarean births in lower risk first-time mothers. 

Within 2015-2017 the hospital cesarean rate dropped from 29.3 percent to 25.3 percent and also with the hope to reach 23.9 in 2018.

The risk of issues with pregnancy rises with the number of cesareans a woman has, Neerland says. 
The health of a family depends on the health of the mother. 

Carrie Neerland also adds that a U of M-led study found that in U.S. hospitals, rates of cesarean births ranged from 7.1 to 69.9 percent and these 10-fold variations are thought to reflect differences in practice and hospital culture rather than differences among women. Nationwide cesareans account for a third of births. 

In conclusion, it is important to avoid cesareans if they’re not necessary.
