There are several situations where an unplanned cesarean may become necessary:
Fetal distress: When the baby shows signs of distress, such as an abnormal heart rate, indicating that they are not getting enough oxygen. Prolonged labor: When labor is not progressing despite medical interventions. Placental issues: Conditions like placenta previa or placental abruption that pose risks to the mother and baby. Umbilical cord problems: Prolapse or compression of the umbilical cord that affects the baby's oxygen supply. Uterine rupture: A rare but serious condition where the uterus tears during labor.
