What would happen to you in the OR during a C-section delivery? What would you see, hear or feel? How long would it take to give birth and see your baby? How long would you spend in the OR (operation room) and what would come next? These are a few of the questions you might be asking yourself.
When a condition occurs where a normal childbirth is no longer possible, whether because of the mother or the fetus, a C-section procedure is done. A Caesarean or C-section means a delivery made by an incision done to the front lower abdominal wall (a laparotomy) and an incision to the uterine wall (a hysterotomy). A C-section procedure can be a planned (elective) procedure or an emergency procedure- in case a problem has occurred during a spontaneous delivery. A planned i.e. scheduled C-section is usually done 7-10 days prior to the expected date of delivery. If it’s otherwise medically indicated or in a case of multiple pregnancy, it can be scheduled even earlier than that.
On the day a C-section is performed, you would have a preoperational preparation which includes:
During a C-section procedure, the baby is born within 5-10 minutes after the operation has started. The procedure is done in a way that mimics the process of the baby passing through the birth canal. You would not experience any pain but you might feel pulling or slight pressure as the baby is taken out of the womb.
In the specialized obstetrics and gynecology hospital “Dr. Organdziski” there are top-notch ORs, equipped with state-of-the-art technology and equipment with a main goal in mind- complete and maximal safety for the mother and her newborn. After the C-section, you would be placed in an intensive care unit (for 6 to 24 hours, depending on the anesthesiologist’s assessment). This intensive care unit also has high quality equipment for intensive monitoring of the patients. After this period, you would be transferred into one of the VIP rooms in our ward.
The length of the hospital stay depends on the method of childbirth. Patients who went through a spontaneous or normal childbirth usually stay for 3 days and the patients who has a C-section delivery usually stay for 5 days.
