Obstetrics Care
Adding new life to the family can be exciting and overwhelming. Every parent, especially a new parent, wants everything to be perfect for their babies. Having a baby is a joyful experience, and it should always remain the same, which is our priority.
Complicated Delivery
Even if you’re healthy and well prepared for labour and giving birth, there’s always a chance of unexpected difficulties.
Slow progress of labour :
How labour is progressing by checking how much the cervix has opened and how far the baby has dropped. If your cervix is opening slowly, or the contractions have slowed down or stopped your doctor may say that your labour isn’t progressing.
Posterior position :
This means the baby’s head enters the pelvis facing your front instead of your back. This can mean a longer labour with more backache. Most babies will turn around during labour, but some don’t. If a baby doesn’t turn, you may be able to push it out yourself or the doctor may need to turn the baby’s head and/or help it out with either forceps or a vacuum pump.
Breech birth :
This is when a baby presents bottom or feet first.
Doctor will discuss with you the best way of managing a breech labour and birth. If the baby is still in the breech position at the end of pregnancy, a caesarean may be recommended.
Multiple pregnancy :
When there is more than one baby, labour may be preterm. When the last baby has been born, the placenta (or placentas) is expelled in the usual way. If the babies are premature, they are likely to need extra care at birth and for a few days or weeks afterwards.
Retained Placenta:
Occasionally the placenta doesn’t come away after the baby is born, so the doctor needs to remove it promptly. This is usually done with an epidural or a general anaesthetic in theatre
Cesarean delivery (C-section)
Cesarean delivery (C-section) is a surgical procedure used to deliver a baby through incisions in the abdomen and uterus.
A C-section might be planned ahead of time if you develop pregnancy complications or you’ve had a previous C-section and aren’t considering a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC). Often, however, the need for a first-time C-section doesn’t become obvious until labor is underway.
Why it’s done ?
Sometimes a C-section is safer for you or your baby than is a vaginal delivery. Your health care provider might recommend a C-section if:
- Your labor isn’t progressing.Stalled labor is one of the most common reasons for a C-section. Stalled labor might occur if your cervix isn’t opening enough despite strong contractions over several hours.
- Your baby is in distress.If your health care provider is concerned about changes in your baby’s heartbeat, a C-section might be the best option.
- Your baby or babies are in an abnormal position.A C-section might be the safest way to deliver the baby if his or her feet or buttocks enter the birth canal first (breech) or the baby is positioned side or shoulder first (transverse).
- You’re carrying multiples.A C-section might be needed if you’re carrying twins and the leading baby is in an abnormal position or if you have triplets or more babies.
- Prolapsed umbilical cord.A C-section might be recommended if a loop of umbilical cord slips through your cervix ahead of your baby.

- Very friendly doctor. I visited her for my 1st pregnancy and delivery. My complete 9 months pregnancy experience with her was awesome. She was always reachable and prompt with her responses answering all my doubts and supporting me always with the best possible guidance for everything. She tried her best for normal delivery but we ended up with c section due to some complications at the end. She was so encouraging throughout the progression of my labour. She also guided me with post delivery care and lactation advices. Completely satisfied and would strongly recommend.
