When is a C-Section Recommended?

C-sections are advised in a variety of medical or obstetric conditions, including:

• Multiple pregnancies (twins, triplets)

• Slow or stalled labor progression

• Abnormal fetal position (breech or transverse lie)

• Failed induction of labor

• Severe maternal conditions (e.g. pre-eclampsia)

• Large baby with a small pelvis

• Precious pregnancies (IVF, previous fetal loss)

• Meconium-stained amniotic fluid

• Fetal growth restriction or very low amniotic fluid (oligohydramnios)

• Fetal heart rate abnormalities during labor

• Previous caesarean delivery
