Description
This ep of The Kick we cover the pros and cons of both vaginal and Caesarean birth.This is a very chatty episode because the answer is…nuanced.The first question we delve into is why someone would ask this question?We talk about:A medical indication where a Caesarean section is suggested.A history of trauma, or fear surrounding vaginal birth.Concern about sexual function after vaginal birthMaybe a birth story has made someone think ‘nope, not for me.’Or they feel a planned Caesarean section seems more manageable.You can find links to the episodes Brigid talks about below: Episode 30.
