Around 1/3 births in the UK happen by caesarean, so it's certainly something you might like to learn about during pregnancy. The prospect of major abdominal surgery whilst awake can be quite daunting for many of us, so in this episode we talk through exactly what you can expect from a caesarean birth. Not just that, but thinking about- what are your options and what considerations might you make to support yourself and your baby and mark this as a positive, transformative, special way of giving birth. I am joined by Consultant Obstetrician Florence Wilcock to shine a light on caesarean birth and hopefully leave you feeling more prepared, more confident and more empowered if you birth your baby by caesarean. ______________________________________________________________________________________ Birth-ed Links Join free- BUMP CLUB- expert  week by week support throughout your pregnancy Online Course from £40/$49 Group and Private Antenatal/Hypnobirthing Courses with podcast host and birth expert Megan Rossiter ______________________________________________________________________________________ Florence Wilcock Links The Obs Pod Mat Exp Support the show
