Hail Caesar (Caesarian birth)

Why one in three Australian babies is born by Caesarian Section


In Hail Caesar many questions are answered such as, If I have a caesarian for my first baby do all the other births have to be caesarians as well? Is it okay for a woman to have a caesarian just because she wants one...or is she being selfish? What are the real risks of caesarian section?

The author, a doctor, provides a factual guide to the caesarian operation, sympathetic to all viewpoints, and advises that accurate information about surgery be given to all pregnant women so that they can make an informed decision if faced with the possibility of surgery. Currently women who give birth by caesarian often end up feeling guilty or negative about their experience because they have not been well prepared.

This informative book will be much appreciated by mothers-to-be, fathers, partners, families and all those interested in birth.
