re: #210 Belafon

CBS This Morning did a show about it. One of the things they mentioned was our increase in cesareans. The doctor on the show described that the more cesareans you have, the more dangerous they get. He described a third cesarean as “operating on a bunch of melted crayons.”

Here’s a graph I found on cesarean rates per year:

I can tell that, around here, cesareans tend to be preferred because it can be scheduled. And, as with all things these days, being able to tell your boss when the kid’s going to be here makes keeping your job safer.

I’d like to chime in with another angle…we make access to contraceptives a difficulty. Coin-op’s daughter went with an IUD instead of less-invasive BC methods because of the difficulty of getting those methods on a regular basis. The resulting scar tissue caused by the IUD made delivering my first grandchild impossible by any means but cesarean. And any future pregnancies get immediately classified as high risk. Coin-op’s daughter is not alone here….

Edited for clarity….
