- Cost of Caesarean Section in Mumbai
Caesarean Section, commonly called as C- Section, is a method adopted for delivery of baby if vaginal birth or natural birth is not possible. It can also be carried out if pre-mature baby is getting delivered. C- Section is carried out by doctor by creating a surgical incision on abdomen and uterus and then, baby is pulled out from the womb.

When does C-Section come into picture?
Doctors do understand that women may need to undergo C-Section way before they enter into labor. Here, are some hints that might need C-section:
- If your previously adopted delivery method was caesarean, then chances are high that this time too it will need C-Section. Vertical incision on uterus increases chances of caesarean delivery.
- If you have undergone any uterine surgery such as myomectomy (surgical procedure used to remove fibroids)
- If you are carrying more than one baby i.e., if there are chances of twins or triplets
- If the weight of the baby is too much for the mother to handle or if the baby is larger than normal in size
- Sometimes, baby's position at time of delivery may not be head down. It may be in breech (bottom first) or transverse (sideways) position. In such cases, C-section has to be performed.
- In case of twins, the first baby might be in right position i.e., head down, but the second baby might be in breech position.
- If there is any obstruction in uterine canal that might prove hazardous for vaginal delivery
- If you are HIV positive, chances of vaginal delivery are reduced
Regular check-ups during pregnancy are recommended to monitor baby's growth and development to prevent any abnormalities.
