An abdominal birth or Caesaran section (c-section) can be an incredible experience, as these birth stories testify.

Over a quarter of babies in the UK come into the world this way, so it’s really important to know all the options and how you can personalise your experience.

That’s why all our courses have a session with an Obstetric doctor, who performs hundreds of c-sections every year.

So, if you have an elective (planned) c-section, or an unexpected one, we hope the tips and experiences from these parents will help you feel positive and inspired.
