“Cesarean Sections”
While members of the medical community concede that at 32% of births obstetricians are performing too many cesareans, cesarean sections can also be life-saving. That is why listening to, and learning from, women’s experiences can benefit both the mothers who might be helped by a timely cesarean, as well as the mothers who can probably avoid the surgery if they are allowed to go into labor spontaneously, or permitted to labor a little longer. In this episode of Lifespan, Robin, Amanda, and Jacinda tell their stories.
