Currently in the UK 1 in 4 women give birth by caesarean section and it can be medically necessary and lifesaving for both mothers and babies. But a Caesarean Section birth can also be an empowering, positive and wholly fulfilling experienceregardless of whether it is a planned or an emergency procedure. All too often women feel that giving birth via a Caesarean Section is in some way failing and can be associated with unnecessary guilty emotions. Women who give birth via Caesarean Section are warriors, it is impossible to fail at birth regardless of how it happens, and all birth is birth and is equally as momentous.
