The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics reports that the c-section delivery rate rose to 29.1 percent in 2004, an increase of more than 40 percent since 1996.

Just in Case presents planned and unplanned cesarean births and information on the special care new mothers need after surgery, in the hospital and at home.

Just in Case helps birth educators teach expectant parents about:

  • What cesarean birth is and why its done
  • Anesthesia and types of incisions
  • Step-by-step information about the surgery itself
  • Immediate postpartum recovery
  • Postpartum pain management and healing strategies
  • Feelings about having a cesarean
  • Taking care of Mom while recovering at home

Just in Case shows how having a baby by cesarean can be every bit the family-focused empowering experience expectant parents hope childbirth will be.
