At MCH (Maternal & Child Health) Hospital, Raigarh, we provide safe and expert Cesarean deliveries (C-sections) when a normal delivery is not possible or safe for the mother or baby.

🔹 What is a Cesarean Delivery?

A Cesarean delivery is a surgical procedure where the baby is delivered through cuts made in the mother's abdomen and uterus.

🔍 When is a C-Section Needed?

A Cesarean may be planned or emergency-based, due to:

• Prolonged or obstructed labor

• Fetal distress (baby’s heartbeat drops)

• Breech position (baby not head-down)

• Placenta previa (placenta covers birth canal)

• High blood pressure or eclampsia

• Previous cesarean delivery

• Multiple pregnancies (twins/triplets)

• Cord prolapse or uterine rupture risk

⚙️ How the Procedure Works:

• Done under spinal or epidural anesthesia (mother awake, no pain)

• A small cut is made on the lower belly and uterus

• Baby is delivered in a few minutes

• Stitches are done to close the cut

• Entire process takes 30–45 minutes

🩺 Post-Delivery Care:

• Hospital stay of 3–5 days

• Pain relief and antibiotics provided

• Monitoring for bleeding, infection, and wound healing

• Support for early breastfeeding and newborn care
