One Family Birth Center Offers Information about Unnecessary C-Sections
Many women are unaware of all the risks associated with taking pain-relieving drugs during childbirth, and oftentimes women do not realize that C-sections are occurring more often than necessary.
(prHWY.com) February 16, 2013 - Anchorage, AR -- Many women do not realize the facts when it comes to caesarean sections in the United States.
That is why One Family Birth Center is dedicated to providing women with the truth. In this case, One Family Birth Center is offering women valuable information about caesarean sections.
First, One Family Birth Center wants women to know that the number of C-sections has risen drastically over the years. It's a fact that the number of C-sections rose by 53% between the years 1996 and 2007, according to a study that was cited in the New York Times in 2010. What's even bleaker is that the number of C-sections continues to climb steadily, year after year.
Today, an estimated 30% of all births that occur in the United States are C-sections (New England Medical Journal 2007). In fact, C-sections that women request for themselves are now being called "C-Sections on demand." More and more women are choosing to schedule a C-section for a variety of reasons including convenience and avoidance of the pain of childbirth. One Family Birth Center wants women to make, above anything else, informed decisions about their birthing experience.
What are the risks associated with C-sections? With all surgeries come risks, but there are particular risks that come with C-sections. One Family Birth Center wants women to know the following information about C-sections:
The mother can experience injury to the organs that are located close to the enlarged uterus such as the bladder and bowel
* A pulmonary embolism is more likely to occur
* There is an increased risk of infection
* There is an increased risk of re-hospitalization
* Newborns are more likely to experience respiratory distress
* The recovery after a C-section is longer than that of a natural delivery
At One Family Birth Center, the staff is dedicating to providing women with information and facts that can empower them to make informed decisions about their pregnancies. Please do not hesitate to contact One Family Birth Center if you have any further questions about the risks associated with C-sections or general questions or concerns about One Family Birth Center, located in Anchorage, Alaska.
