Artificial birth - the second name for cesarean section. Such births can be planned or unplanned. Most often, a cesarean is chosen in special circumstances that may pose a threat to the mother`s or child`s life.

Sometimes women themselves request this operation to avoid long and painful contractions.

Advantages of cesarean section

Cesarean is surrounded by myths and speculations. Today, the editorial team of ”Tak Prosto!” will dispel five of them so you can joyfully await your child`s arrival into the world.

1. Hyperactivity

It is believed that cesarean can cause uncontrolled child activity. Hyperactivity is the scourge of our century. However, the reason for such behavior is not cesarean, and with wise upbringing, this problem can be avoided.

2. Problems with mental development

Cesarean babies are immediately taken to a pediatrician and neurologist after birth. But don`t worry! It`s a standard procedure performed as a precautionary measure. If the child still shows developmental delays, the cause is usually several factors, not just cesarean.

3. Hyposomia

Cesarean does not always require special development programs. Similar problems can be caused by amniotic fluid entering the respiratory system, late first breath, complications after anesthesia.

The risk of complications increases during an emergency cesarean when the mother`s body doesn`t have time to prepare for the procedure. But even in this case, the risk only increases and is never 100 percent.

4. Frequent crying

The great stress caused by birth activates various hormones and strengthens the child`s nervous system. Cesarean skips this important process, experiencing a certain bypass in neuro and physiological functions. Various nervous system problems are a possible risk factor. But it can`t be predicted!

5. Insufficient milk

The main brain activity normalizes nine days after birth in cesarean. Children born naturally return to normal on the first day. Sometimes the lactation process in mothers is disrupted due to antibiotics, but mother`s milk guarantees proper, harmonious child development.

To prevent this problem, it`s necessary to pay attention to the doctor`s qualifications who will perform the operation, and don`t worry unnecessarily. Most often, milk starts appearing later due to stress!

Risk is possible in any operation. It`s always worth considering them in advance, preparing in time, and knowing that a favorable outcome is guaranteed by two things: proper child care and qualified medical care. May your children be healthy!
