Risks of Cesarean Surgery
If the cesarean surgery is done before the spontaneous onset of labor, both the pregnant woman and the fetus may miss out on some of the hormonal preparation for birth such as having the optimal number of receptors, the fetal catecholamine surge that prepares the lungs for air breathing, and the maternal surge of oxytocin that provides a neuroprotective effect for the fetal brain. Most cesarean surgeries are performed with epidural analgesia so the negative effects listed earlier also apply. Maternal-infant separation is more common after cesarean surgery, so mother and baby may not get the benefits of immediate, uninterrupted skin-to-skin contact. But the good news is that, as with labor induction and epidural analgesia, immediate, uninterrupted skin to-skin contact will increase the release of oxytocin, endorphins, and prolactin and decrease the release of catecholamines.
