The C-Spot: A Podcast about C-Sections

Episode 2: My C-Section Journey - Part 1

Daisy Davis-Marcelo Episode 2

This episode is Part 1 of my two-part birth story. My first birth experience was a planned induction which turned into an unplanned, "emergency" C-section. I went into my induction thinking that it would be a straightforward birth, but I ended up feeling blindsided, disappointed, and defeated once I was told that I would need to undergo a C-section to birth my baby. From having difficulty with breastfeeding to experiencing postpartum depression, I was left with a lot of questions about whether or not this C-section could have been avoided.
