S H O U L D E R T I P P A I N This is a common complaint after having a c-section. Caused by the disturbances inside your body during the operation, your bowels can slow down, creating excess gas. This presses on the diaphraghm triggering referred pain in your shoulder. The pain is usually describes as a deep pain and can vary in severity. Some people may be concerned if they experience it, but there are ways to help. Generally analgesia, like paracetamol, is not as effective as something that will treat the production of the gas -like peppermint. You might be offered peppermint cordial, peppermint tea or Colperin (a tablet form) to ease this. Peppermint has been known to impact milk supply if you are breastfeeding and because I get asked about this I consulted with a lactation consultant to weigh up benefits/risks. The advice was that you would need to be drinking buckets of tea fo it to become an issue, so should be considered to help if you experience this discomfort. Have you felt this after a c-section?

C A R E A F T E R A C-S E C T I O N Having a c-section means you are left with a wound on your skin, but there is also tissue and muscle healing deeper than that. Your doctor goes through 6 layers of skin, tissue and muscle during this surgery and all of this needs to heal aswel. So taking care of the wound is important but resting and taking care of yourself is just as important. Say yes to help. Eat well. Stay hydrated. See a Women’s Health Physio Think of how long you would allow yourself for recover after any other major surgery. This should be no different. 📸: @belleverdiglione #todandb #todeliveryandbeyond #caesarean #caesareansection #csectionawarenessmonth #antenatal #postnatal #labour #labor #birth #labouranddelivery #laboranddelivery #antenataleducation #antenatalclass #onlineantenatalclass #midwife #midwifeled #midwifeledantenatalclasses #hypnobirth #hypnobirthing #onlinehypnobirthingclass #hypnobirthingmidwife #newmum #newbaby #newborn #birthisbirth #bellybirth #due2021 #pregnant2021 #pregnant (at County Mayo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN7isn7H1dc/?igshid=1mggqjn1fjzzt
R E A S O N S F O R A C-S E C T I O N There are lots of different reasons why someone may need to have a c-section. Here are a few: Prolonged labour (the true definition of prolonged labour and the cut off point in the hospital can vary by A LOT. We cover this in my class) Fetal distress - baby not managing well in labour. This can be caused by a variety of reasons. Baby’s are made for labour so quite often it happens when we intervene. Birth Defects - it may be decided that it would be safer for you and/or baby to have a c-section rather than a vaginal birth. Some health conditions may mean a c-section is safer. Obstetric Emergency’s - e.g cord prolapse, placental abruption Multiple births - this depends on how many babies and the position they are in. Repeat c-section - if you had a previous c-section and choose not to have a VBAC Placenta Issues - this can be anything from a low lying placenta to one that is embedded deep into the uterine tissue or a placental abruption. Breech birth - the majority of people with baby in a breech position choose to have a planned c-section. This list is not exhaustive and everyone’s journey is different.

WHAT HAPPENS DURING A C-SECTION Join me on Thursday at 11am over on @lactationtalkwithorla where I’ll be going through what to expect during a c-section and any questions that you may have (she has a question box up). 📸: @memories_by_mckenzie #todandb #todeliveryandbeyond #caesarean #caesareansection #csectionawarenessmonth #antenatal #postnatal #labour #labor #birth #labouranddelivery #laboranddelivery #antenataleducation #antenatalclass #onlineantenatalclass #midwife #midwifeled #midwifeledantenatalclasses #hypnobirth #hypnobirthing #onlinehypnobirthingclass #hypnobirthingmidwife #newmum #newbaby #newborn #birthisbirth #bellybirth #due2021 #pregnant2021 #pregnant (at Ireland (country)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN7FqIPH0aq/?igshid=1ncnbjamh7dwz
T I P S T O R E D U C E C/S 1️⃣Avoid an epidural, or at least delay it, if possible 2️⃣Remain in an upright position in labour and for birth (see my highlights - you can do this with an epidural too) 3️⃣Hire a doula - you decrease the chance of having a c/s by up to 25% 4️⃣Choose midwife-led care instead of private care 5️⃣If it is available and you are comfortable with it - choose to have a homebirth 6️⃣Do an independent antenatal education class like the one offered here at To Delivery And Beyond 7️⃣Try and stay at home until active labour 8️⃣Request Intermittent Auscultation of baby’s heartbeat rather than continuous monitoring 9️⃣If it’s a time issue and both you and baby are okay, request more time 🔟Avoid artificial rupture of membranes (when the doctor/midwife breaks your waters) unless indicated for a reason such as to monitor the heart-rate via the baby’s head (not common but sometimes used) 📸: @elliana_allon #todandb #todeliveryandbeyond #caesarean #caesareansection #csectionawarenessmonth #antenatal #postnatal #labour #labor #birth #labouranddelivery #laboranddelivery #antenataleducation #antenatalclass #onlineantenatalclass #midwife #midwifeled #midwifeledantenatalclasses #hypnobirth #hypnobirthing #onlinehypnobirthingclass #hypnobirthingmidwife #newmum #newbaby #newborn #birthisbirth #bellybirth #due2021 #pregnant2021 #pregnant (at London, Unιted Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNvNeY1nZey/?igshid=u4ngjkatx0qo
This is ✨ M A G I C ✨ Following on from last nights post where we looked at what is involved in a Gentle C-Section (and so many of you loved it so hopefully more will be able to have them) - here is an example of a mum assisting the birth of her baby at a c/s Okay, this gowning up and putting on gloves might not be possible with every c-section, but it would be for a lot of them. Who would love to get their hands stuck in? 🙋🏻♀️ I know I would 😁 #todandb #todeliveryandbeyond #caesarean #caesareansection #csectionawarenessmonth #antenatal #postnatal #labour #labor #birth #labouranddelivery #laboranddelivery #antenataleducation #antenatalclass #onlineantenatalclass #midwife #midwifeled #midwifeledantenatalclasses #hypnobirth #hypnobirthing #onlinehypnobirthingclass #hypnobirthingmidwife #newmum #newbaby #newborn #birthisbirth #bellybirth #due2021 #pregnant2021 #pregnant (at The Farm Midwifery Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNumGkwnvuW/?igshid=9mhpwc7uf92h
