About this listen

Maternal assisted c-section births have been on the rise in recent years. It is a type of Cesarean section where the mother is actively involved to help to bring her baby into the world. As in, she literally helps pull her baby out! In this podcast episode we speak with Kelsie, a mum who has experienced it herself. We talked about what was involved and what she loved most about the process.


We also get to hear about her first emergency C-section story and what she learnt from this experience to influence her second birth.


Topics Covered:

  • Her first Emergency C-section and why it occurred?
  • Her C-section recovery and what helped the most?
  • What a maternal assisted C-section is?
  • How her and her husband came to this decision?
  • What was involved in the maternal assisted C-section?
  • How the day carried out?
  • Her recovery after her second birth?
