c sections

How is a C-Section Performed?

The procedure typically involves the following steps:
Anesthesia: Most c-sections are performed under regional anesthesia, such as an epidural or spinal block, which numbs the lower half of the body.
Incision: A horizontal incision is made in the lower abdomen, just above the pubic area.
Delivery: The baby is delivered through the incision, and the umbilical cord is cut.
Closure: The incisions in the uterus and abdomen are then closed with sutures.
