I do find it strange more women seemingly can’t, or won’t, deliver naturally.

Hospitals push c-sections to free up delivery rooms and reduce the risk/liability of difficult/prolonged natural deliveries.

The doctors are the ones insisting on c-sections. I never had one myself, but I knew many women whose doctors insisted they have c-sections, instead of natural childbirth.

Perhaps because you’ve never given birth

I had a scheduled c-section at 36 weeks due to high risk, scar tissue.
I fought tooth & nail to deliver naturally or at least extend the 36 weeks to full term but they were worried I would have complications to both me, baby if live birth.
After the c-section, they told me minimal scar tissue & I probably could’ve delivered naturally/full term! Problem is, there was no way to know what my uterine scar tissue looked like because obviously pregnant. To make things worse, my son spent 1 week in NICU because lungs weren’t fully developed. It was horrible.

Dr. Yaqoot Fatima and Dr. Tahmina Begum were part of a team that used data from the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children to analyze the health outcomes of children delivered by C-section.

Well, many of them are alive to study. There’s that.

It’s not strange that many women can’t deliver naturally. Women used to die in childbirth pretty regularly before C- Sections.

And often, it’s not even that, but fetal distress. Sometimes it’s about saving the baby’s life and not the mother’s ability to deliver.

The idea that women choose c-sections over labor because it’s easier or more convenient, or whatever, is ludicrous. It’s major surgery and the recovery is no picnic.

I can’t believe they’re actually talking about reducing cesarean births. Forty years ago, people for natural births were saying c-sections were too high, 25-33% of births. It took 40 years for medical deep state to pay attention.

babies who are obese often need to be delivered by Cesarean section. Usually their moms are also obese.

others need a c section because the baby would be born dead or brain damaged because of prolonged labor.

C Sections often are done because of prolonged labor. Partly defensive medicine; if the fetal heart beat shows signs of fetal distress, you do a C section, even though often the kid would deliver okay, because if the kid ends up with brain damage you get sued.

But even when we worked in Africa, about ten percent of women needed a C section so the baby would be born alive...

as for women not needing a c section: I had one farmer who just knew his wife who was in good shape, could deliver normally. After 12 hours of labor the cervix was dilated but the head remained high so we did a C section. Without that surgery she would have died in childbirth: a common way to die in the good old days by the way.

Older women are giving birth.

That’ll up the likelihood of a caesarean.

So will gestational diabetes.

FWIW, while caesarians for convenience are a rotten idea in my opinion, I think this study is crap.
