What to expect
Everything they don’t tell you in the hospital, but should
This is your complete guide to caesarean birth, whether planned for or emergency surgery, Clare Bourne has your back. The c-section rate is rising globally – The World Health Organization predicts that by 2030, nearly a third of births will be caesarean.
Too many women receive little or no support or information around their c-section. To have major surgery to birth your baby, and then be sent home 24 hours later without any useful guidance on recovery can feel scary and overwhelming, particularly on top of the not-insignificant job of looking after a newborn.
In Your Caesarean Birth, Clare Bourne offers her trademark warm, compassionate, expert tips and tools. A practical, comprehensive book which will arm you with all the information you need to ensure you feel fully confident and empowered on your road to recovery.
With toolkits for how to talk to your healthcare practitioner, advice on scar care and tips for how to pick up a wriggling toddler without disturbing your c-section wound, this book is the guide every c-section mum needs on their bedside table.
