Baby's Body Born - Cesarean Section

Amanda Ralston

The moment you've been waiting for - your baby's birth! It's been about 5-10 minutes since your surgery started. Your baby will briefly be held over the drape to show you the baby and the taken away by a nursery nurse or neonatologist to a nearby warmer.

Usually the warmer is in the same room as the surgery. Here your baby will be suctioned again to ensure that they have help clearing the amniotic fluid.
