Synopsis
Award winning media reporter for USA Today answers all the questions a pregnant mom may have about this increasingly performed procedure---now used in more than one in every four births. Despite the steep rise-in C-sections there are few books available to help moms-to-be sort out their options, allay their fears, and navigate their way through this serious and emotionally complex procedure., An award-winning health writer answers all the questions a pregnant mom may have about this increasingly performed procedure-now used in nearly one in every four births Thirty years ago, 1 in 20 babies was born by a c-section. Today that number has swelled to almost 1 in 4. Yet despite the steep rise in C-sections, there are very few books available to help moms-to-be sort out their options, allay their fears, and navigate their way through this serious and emotionally complex procedure. Rita Rubin, USA Today 's medical reporter, tells women: - The main reason Cesareans are performed - Exactly what the procedure entails - How to communicate with their doctors-to insure the birth experience they want - Strategies that will help them recover from the surgery quickly and relatively painlessly - How to decide whether to have an elective C-section-and how to cope should surgery be medically necessary - How to sort out the controversy about VBAC-Vaginal Birth After C-section Whether the reader is considering choosing an elective C-section, worrying about what she will face should she need one, or recovering in the days after her delivery, she'll find the facts in this unbiased, authoritative, reassuring guide-along with steps she can take to make the birth of her child the healthiest, most joyous occasion possible.

    My experience was extremely positive. The product was still sealed in its package, i.e. brand new as described. The price was very reasonable and free shipping too! What more can I say? Oh, the games are very fun too. Thank you.
