April is Cesarean Awareness Month. Our team put together some myths and facts about this type of birth because there are so many misconceptions about Cesarean Births.
Here`s one quick tip for any professional reading these: Instead of calling them "C Sections", try saying "Cesarean Birth" instead. Adding the word birth reminds us that this is the baby`s birth into the world, and more than just a medical procedure.
