December Support Meeting: The Family-Centered Cesarean

The family-centered or “gentle” cesarean is a mother-centered approach to surgical birth that incorporates some of the bonding aspects of a physiological birth into the cesarean procedure. This approach has several benefits for both mom and baby and can often provide a more empowering and satisfying birth experience for parents.

Whether you’re planning for a c-section or hoping to avoid one, it’s important that you know and prepare for ALL your options! Join us for our December meeting as we discuss the different options for a family-centered cesarean, hear from mothers who have had one, and talk about how you can make sure to include this approach in your own birth plan (whether that’s your Plan A or Plan B!)

We will also designate a time for birth story sharing and additional support.

Partners and support people are welcome. Due to space limitations, babies in arms only, please! Our monthly support meetings are always FREE. For more information about our ICAN chapter, please check out our Facebook page.
