We all know Caesarean birth is not rare – it seems as though many of our friends have had Caesarean sections, some of our neighbours, maybe our sisters too.

BUT 

Even for something this common, a Caesarean section for some women is a mystery right up until it becomes her reality. This is where we hear, “if only someone had told me”. Well here is the good news, we’ve put some gold into this podcast to help you be the full bottle.

Why did we start this podcast? Well we think there is a barrier for women to get EXPERT pregnancy info that is practical, relatable and easy to understand.

Dr Pat has helped 1000s of women have their babies and through this we know that this kind of information given to a woman at the right time can totally change her experience of pregnancy and birth.

We invite you to do our free pregnancy quiz at www.growmybaby.com.au

In this podcast you will learn:

  • The rate of caesarean section
  • Factors that impact on the rate of caesarean section
  • What a planned Caesarean section is
  • What an emergency Caesarean section is
  • The reasons for Caesarean section
  • What to expect during the Caesarean birth
  • Requests you can make during the Caesarean birth
  • What a maternal assisted Caesarean birth is.
