Thanks for acknowledging that 🙌 that is a human being who's soul is gone on, but it's still them. Those intestines nourished her, that uterus bled every month, those muscles helped her move. Her whole life. It's beautiful and sad at the same time.
I feel the same, thank for this woman, and everyone else, who donates their body to science. They also help save other people's life, even in their death, plus help new medical students to learn. She must be a nice lady.
I had a c-section 10 years ago. I still have pain in my incision; I have nerve damage! Those who say a c-section is the easy way out...absolutely not! Taking care of a newborn while recovering from major surgery is challenging. Either way, my son is the love of my life and such a blessing.
God bless you and your family hun. Thank you for all you did and do to take care of your child/family and yourself. You're an awesome mother and a beautiful daughter of God. May He prosper you and that everything you touch succeeds. Take care 😇🌺💖.
I get so many urine infections since having a c-section with my youngest. Absolutely hated everything about the c-section compared to all my natural births. I was emotional before I even had the c-section about having to get one & cried through the entire process. It felt like my body couldn't do what it had done 4 times previously and what it was naturally created to do. Plus the recovery process is much longer and more painful (a hot burning sensation when you move, cough, sneeze or laugh). I found myself still very emotional for a further 3 weeks after the procedure. I would never recommend a c-section over natural birth unless medically necessary.
I had my second c section last week. Thank you to the person who donated her body to science so I can see exactly what they do and how they do it. I appreciate you. Rest peacefully. ❤️
Don't worry! I have had 4 C sections , I went in, they put me to sleep, about an hour later, I woke up and they brought me my baby. Each time, I felt nothing. All my kids were perfect in every way. Had my 1st one in 1995!
My 1st c sec was due to cord wrapped around my daughter's neck. 2nd one was due to having cervical cancer & 90% of my cervix was removed at 3 mos. pregnant. Both daughters born healthy. Had cervical cancer 3 yrs later, had last of cervix removed. 15 yrs later had radical hysterectomy due to cancer about to return. God is good! I am still cancer free after 14 yrs. later. I give God the glory for watching over my babies, my doctors & myself!
Wow, what a story!! You have certainly been blessed by God time after time. If I ever get cancer, I will remember your story and have Hope!! Thanks for sharing!!
I’ve had two C-Sections and it was a painful recovery. The first one was an emergency C-Section, the 2nd was planned because I had one previously. At the end of the day it was worth the pain and recovery. My oldest daughter is 40 years old and my youngest is 37 years old. They are my heart and they blessed me with 4 grandchildren! I’m so blessed!
Me too. 2 planned as I had breach babies. My girls are 22 and 19. I dread sneezing so painful. My 2 c section went wrong so I had to have a botched emergency tummy tuck. I was told never to have any more babies. I was gutted!
I'm grateful to the individuals and the families! My uncle did and with his donation, he aided in the education of med students and aided in the progress of research into his many diseases. I'm also thankful for the internet having educational and just plain curiosity based information!
It's actually a lot larger than that of the cadaver, the uterus tends to decrease in size after childbearing age. It's pretty much as big as the cavity it was in.
I wish all my high school and college teachers were as passionate about the subject they were teaching as this guy is. I was hanging in his every word!
That's why I have watched nearly all their videos. I appreciate them so very much. It's why I just signed the paperwork to donate my body to my nearby medical school. I hope others here consider doing so as well. If nothing else, it saves on funeral expenses (that's a joke; don't mean to be disrespectful.).
I had 2 c sections ,my daughter is 1 year 7 months ,and delivered second baby on july 17th 2023 ,its been 5 weeks ,im taking care of both alone ,those 2 weeks are deadly pain even now having backache,but proud be an mother .
Omg we all grew inside a body like this. Deep inside a safe warm body. How absolutely insane to open a person and find another person!! I’m totally blown away by this and I’m not even high.
I was lucky enough to have a successful C-section 14 months ago, and it was actually a *pleasant* experience. I was completely numb from the chest down and literally felt NOTHING except pressure when my daughter was being pulled out. I do not tolerate pain well, and I was in little to no pain afterwards- only took Tylenol and Advil combo when I was recovering. Shout out to my damn self for going through this, to bring my world into this world!
@@userwhogivesopinion I had this done three times, the spinal block isn't that bad because they numb the site locally first. It isn't comfortable, but it's less painful than the contractions I was having that weren't doing anything except stressing my baby that was breech and had already passed meconium in utero.
Lucky! I felt so much during my c section lol. I'm happy my baby came out safe and sound too though. And it really is so worth it. You just can't understand until it happens 💗
Wow… watching this as a c-section mom, all I can think is: I am an absolute goddess. Seriously, as a parent you become completely focussed on your kids and it’s easy to forget what a bad ass human being you are for bringing them into the world.
Lonely Dog hi! I’m a current med student so not 100% sure what they use, but in my next school they insert a catheter into the jugular vein and fill it with embalming fluid. They then refrigerate the bodies for about a year
How many times can a woman have a C section if its with the first 3kids tht means u had 3 after another. I believe tht a woman can only have 3can they give u more just asking when all 3 kids were c section?
I had four... and I have been very curious!! This video is fascinating. I hope school my kids now... I think I'll make this video required watching when they are in highschool biology ;)
Same here, and I've had 6 of them! When he was describing how the surgeons will tear the layers underneath the dermis layers, I was like 🤯 I always assumed they just cut straight through every layer to get inside the abdominal cavity (and I suppose that might be the procedure in an emergency situation 🤔🤷🏼♀️)...all that to say this was a very interesting and informative video!
Literally just had a c section five days ago😅 scariest thing of my life. And let me tell you... PAINFUL! I’m finally feeling a bit better but still can’t do anything myself. It’s a blessing that my daughter is here safe though.
I had 4 of them and I agree with the previous commenter each day gets better. Just take it easy and allow your body to heal. And word of advice to heal a little faster, breastfeed.
I had a C-section with my first and 2 vbacs with no meds. The natural birth was way easier than my C-section was. I couldn't sleep for like a month with my C-section and I didn't get to hold my son for 2 hours. I don't know know why but I felt like I was still waiting to give birth and they were handing me someone else's baby, which completely messed up the bonding experience.
I’ve had all my 4 children by C-Section!! I cried so much my first time but it had to be done ASAP due to emergency complications.. But I was practically bullied and said so many bad things by family members that I wasn’t considered a true mother because of my C-Sections and that only a true mother our those who don’t have this procedure done.. But now as I have learned what a woman goes through and how it truly looks like I ignore the ignorance because I’m truly blessed of having my children and doesn’t matter how they came just as long as they got here in great health..Thanks for this video!! 👍🏻
@@Karenzation No you shouldn't distance yourself from your own family.. instead always be prepared prepared to offer the medical explanations and all of the UA-cam recordings necessary these are a real blessing and come in handy when you're dealing with people's ignorances.... Cuz really making comments like that this just shows Ignorance
Yes, having a c-section was one of the most challenging afterwards I was afraid to cough, move, go to the bathroom because it was painful. I do have nerve damage as well. Definitely a process of recovery while trying to take care of a newborn.
I imagine that the placental tissue becomes necrotic and would lead to a major infection. I'm glad that your mother survived and sorry she had that experience :(
Working as an operating room nurse, asssisting with Cesarean sections on a daily basis. Found this anatomy dictorial very informative and explain in an easy way for new students and mothers to be!
Do you have a cadaver where you could do a Asthma lesson on and that you could show the bronchial tubes and what happens in asthma patients? Thank you for great educational anatomy lessons
Gone through the comments and learnt so much. Woman, you go through so much. I mean you my sister, my mother, my aunty and most importantly, one who carried my children in womb. Woman, let every soul celebrate and honour you.
My mom had a C-Section to have me and now I'm crying thinking about everything she had to go through and the trauma of the surgery :'( I need to give her a hug!
Atiq M At the end of 2018 I had a C section and my little man was born. Don’t worry, your kids are worth it! Although it’s weird seeing this explained, I have to admit 😄
Birthing vaginally is an option, although not for every case. The U.S. is performing WAY to many so there's this cultural of normalization of Csections, 1 in 3 isnt normal, I wish doctors would actually just give women more time to labor and do what the body can.
I did a surgical rotation and was able to watch many different doctors perform sections. Having had 2 myself, I truly appreciate the doctors that take the time to suture each layer separately. It makes such a difference for mom’s healing! After 2 sections, I needed a hysterectomy at 28yo due to severe scar tissue that was causing constrictions so bad, I couldn’t straighten my abdomen or stand up completely straight without literally feeling a tearing/ripping feeling in my abdomen. My surgeon was shocked at how bad it was. It took him an hour just to remove the web of adhesions that sort of cocooned my abdominal cavity. Once that was cleared away, he said he couldn’t visualize my uterus or left ovary. My uterus had been pulled and cocooned into my pelvis & the ovary was tangled up in adhesions & intestine. He explained to me later that his opinion was that during my sections, I was closed up very haphazardly, instead of layer by layer, allowing adhesions to become so invasive. All I know is that I felt like a new person after that surgery. I could move & stretch & twist without feeling like something inside of me was being torn apart. Great video!
I had two “c-sections” due to fibroids (I don’t have kids), and this video made me realize why I was in so much pain and feeling like I would burst open if I stood up. Our body heals amazingly and my double scar is barely visible. This video also made me appreciate even more the skillful hands of my doctor who performed both surgeries and sadly, passed away last September due to COVID. Stay safe everyone, for you and your loved ones but also for those silent heroes that give their lives for their patients.
I also had a c section, I have 1 child & after pushing for 13 hours and her not coming out they said I needed a c section & now after watching this I'm blessed too, my scar is basically soooo tiny & I healed quick. But my stomach still hurts and it's been 8 years since I gave birth. I can't even get up laying on my back I need to roll over side ways in order to get up .
@@Danielle-ii8zc Fibroids are tumors in the womb, usually they are not cancerous but they can be dangerous in other ways. They can grow in size and cause hemorrhage, the first one I had did that to me it was almost 10 cms when it was removed. A friend had one that weighed 1 kg! And gave her no trouble except for recurrent bladder infections... so, some women have them and don’t realize it, others battle with them in different ways. My second surgery was preventive because I had many smaller fibroids appear in a short period of time, so they were removed before they grew. last time I checked I was clean of them but they could appear again so I need to check every year.
The guy in the video was my anatomy instructor in massage school. He's awesome! I totally think his passion for teaching helped me get an A in the class
I was in the OR during each of my wife's 3 C-Sections. When my most recent daughter, Nora was born the OR staff didn't want me to stand up and look at the surgical process (because Dad's pass out). But I stood up and watched the entire process of birthing our children, and most of the closure. AND, my wife was conscious for all but 1, the one we lost. But the other two, my wife was conscious, talking, asking questions, excitedly awaiting a new baby! The magic of modern medical wonders!
Im sorry about the one you lost, I cant imagine that kind of pain... My husband was in the room for all 3 of my C-Sections too.. In fact, with the first one he was trying to keep me awake (blood loss) by explaining what the Doctors were doing in detail. I didnt pass out but if there was anything in my stomach I would have lost it. My second one he knew better than to tell me about it but instead asked me if I wanted a mirror, no thanks and with the twins, he just watched, amazed, didnt say anything but was loving every minute of it.
This is amazing you made this video! I am a mother of 3 c-section babies. My first child I was in labor for over 27hours they had to induce me break my water and I was only able to dilate to 4 1/2 cm I was stuck at that for 12 hrs. They rushed me into an emergency caesarean. The doc came in at 6pm to check me and I was in the OR at 6:20 and my son was born at 6:54pm. My doctor said for my second and third child I most likely wouldn’t be able to dilate due to my body not dilating during my first delivery so I had 2 more planned/ scheduled caesarean’s. It was a very scary thing to go through but as soon as you hear your baby cry it’s unimaginable emotions that overcome you and I wasn’t scared once I heard my son’s first cry. Thank you so much for making this video I really appreciated watching it!!
Man I know this is obvious and everything but I'm amazed I can watch such a quality video, with super clear explanations for a viewer who is nowhere near the medical field, for free, literally on my bed. It's incredible the knowledge that gets shared, and with such good quality. The fact this is not even my line of work makes it even better in some way. I don't know what to do with this but every second was passionating. Thank you !
You’ve experienced a great loss. Keep putting one foot in front of the other. It will take a little while, but there will come a day when you will feel some joy again.💖
I watched a C-section as a nursing student. I was SHOCKED when the surgeon pulled the uterus out and had it standing up on the abdomen. This was after the baby and placenta were delivered in order to do a bilateral tubal ligation. It is no wonder that women are in such pain afterwards. YIKES!
I’m an OB nurse. I’ve watch MANY c sections. They’re brutal to watch with how much effort is put in to get the baby out! I routinely care for postpartum patients and tell them not to be heroes and take pain medication when needed because if they had seen what their body went through!
During my C-section nearly 26 years ago, my bladder was taken out (for delivery) and I'd bet more was cut than in this video. The area under my navel is still numb from the nerves never re-attaching.
After having 2 vaginal births, due to complications and placenta previa with my 3rd I had to have a C-section. Watching this video gave me a better understanding as to what exactly happened during mine and a good idea of why I have some of the issues I now have with my lower abdomen. This video is very informative and I appreciate the time taken to walk me and others through the process... Doctors are not always willing to give full explanations of how a procedure is done I think it is because they may precieve it as information unneeded. Like regardless if I tell you how it is done, you won't understand or it doesn't matter if you know it doesn't effect you in grand scheme of things.... But I live in this body, it's the only one I'm ever gonna have I'd like to know exactly what is being done to it, even if the Dr or whomever thinks it's not pertinent information. So again Thank you for sharing.
yeah doctors don't usually take time to explain.. so thank god we have this internet and all the information on UA-cam. I watched full videos of c sections on youtube to get the idea of what is going to happen during me c section 😅
Last year at the ripe age of 37, I had my first ever pregnancy & didn't have child labour pains. Due to medical complications, I had an emergency caeseran. Now I'm watching this to understand the entire operation.
I love watching this because a c-section saved me and my moms life. Mom had a huge myoma (tumor) in her uterus while she was pregnant with me. She was told by several doctors that she needed an abortion and the tumor removed because it could kill her. She refused to terminate the pregnancy and went on to find a doctor willing to help her as long as she’s willing to be confined in her 6th month. They couldn’t remove the tumor in the uterus because at the time they didn’t have the expertise and resources to do the procedure while I was still developing inside her. She stayed in the hospital for the rest of her pregnancy. I was never able to turn in her womb with the risk of being choked by my umbilical chord. Her tumor also grew as fast as I did. She had a scheduled c-section, once I was out they also removed her whole uterus as well. She really took a gamble because she wanted me to be born and happy. It’s only been 24 years and now women with a similar case as her have even better chances to survive their pregnancies. I appreciate how far we have advanced in the fields of medicine and science so mothers like my mom can live long lives with their kids.
@@DrCatdeJong She sure is! Since then she has been so supportive and helpful of my older sister and my sister-in-laws with their pregnancies and I have no doubt when my time comes she will be there with me ❤
@DOOMAN Still life threatening, there is still the percentage who die during child birth, 3 souls within my family and friends lost to PPH. So yes child birth being life threats is very much a valid statement regardless of percentages. Purely because you do not know who or when it is going to effect somebody.
@@dooman2018 we take for granted the act of childbirth and c-sections and deem it routine forgetting that each carries with it very real risks, e.g. PPH even more so if you look at other parts of the world where the maternal death rate is higher. My mother was a postpartnum nurse for 30 years and she’s told me some incredibly sad stories of new mothers whose life ended after giving birth.
Good bless this women who gave us the opportunity to see this procedure. May she rest in peace. I myself had a c section and it wasn't the most pleasant experience! But not having this I know my son wouldn't have been saved. A miracle in every sense☺️
I'm about to have my baby in a few weeks, for some reason this makes me feel less afraid to have a c-section if things don't go as planned. I feel more educated and less doomed.
I had to have an emergency C-section with my first I promise it is not terrible. Yes you will have pain and yes it will burn at the sight of the incision( it is a major operation) but it is bearable. If you have to have one get up and walk as soon as you can it will hurt like no other at first but I promise it really helps and also stay on top of your pain meds while in the hospital if you have a good nurse they will bring you your meds before the other has worn off trust me if they ask if you want the medicine even if you don’t feel the pain say yes because when it hits it hurts. My 2nd C-section the did not let me up and put a waist trainer on me and the nurses did not stay on top of my pain meds and so my 2nd was way worse than my first!! I tell people all the time do not let them put the waist trainer on you or bandage you like that because once they take it off the pain all hits at once! Best of luck and congratulations!
I had an emergency section with my first and honestly it really isn’t so bad. Yes it is painful afterwards and that first sneeze after a section is scary but you will be suprised at how quickly You get over that pain xx good luck and congratulations x
I’m sorry, but I do not agree with the comments above. C-sections varies a lot, when it comes to pain for some reason. I was unable to stand up by myself and had to use a wheelchair. I was on oxynorm for the first 8 days or so and now I’m on tramadol. So you can’t really say “I promise, it’s not that bad” because this widely varies from person to person. Some feel almost no pain and are fine after to days, some still feel pain after months, etc.
Fascinating! Ive always wanted to see this. I’ve had three c-sections and couldn’t see what was happening. Having a pre-planned c-section is so… much easier than having gone through labor, only to realize you couldn’t deliver naturally. Your body isn’t worn out and doesn’t have to recoup from labor and surgery.
The act of giving birth, whether c-section or vaginal, is absolutely amazing and miraculous. I mean it’s literally removing a fully formed human from your body that wasn’t there nine months prior. EDIT: Wow, these comments are salty! If you don’t want to have kids then don’t have kids. But don’t shit on the process and be rude about people who do. I had a great birthing experience and zero complications. It’s definitely possible for it not to be traumatic.
I had an emergency c section four months ago. Literally the most painful thing I have ever felt in my whole life. It hurt to walk for days. It was worth it though because my daughter is a beautiful little angel :) Thank you for this informative video, I had no idea what they did to me down there as I was heavily sedated
I have had 3 c sections because my body apparently wouldn't open to give birth. That first one was horrible and I feared having anymore babies because I didn't want to go through that again. But once you have that first one you pose a risk of trying to do it vaginally (it's called a V-Back) so I was told I'd never be able to give birth vaginally. That 2nd c section was a breeze and so was my 3rd. You do not have nowhere near the pain as with the first one
To all of the amazing mothers that have endured this procedure, I sincerely apologize for thinking that a C-Section was easier than a vaginal birth. I was ignorant🤦🏼♀️
4 роки тому+22
I've had 2... the 1st was 3 weeks late, induced labor for 12 hours per day for 5 days & I still wasn't dilated enough, at which point I was ready to murder the doctor if he'd come close enough to my bed... so then he scheduled the c-section. The 2nd one, I explained to the doctor what happened with the 1st time... and that got me scheduled... and I requested tubal ligation & got it. LOL 😄
I had 2 c sections, first one had to be an emergency c section due to my baby boy coming out with his legs first, after that the dr closed me up and messed up and now I have to have a c section every time I have a baby.. shout out to all women who have to go through one!! You are all strong and amazing women, god bless you guys ♥️
Blessings to u! I had two c sections in a span of 13 months! With the first one being an emergency due to placental abruption. 4 years down I still feel pain in the incision, still recovering.. God bless all mothers!
I have had 2,emergency for premier twins premature sorry and the second scar tissue from the first How horrible people can be to you about it !As if you’re to posh to push One woman told me l was disgusting and hoped they make you push If l had l would of died.Unreal hey !
Any birth that brings baby into the world safely is a good birth - there should be no shame for which type of birth a mom chooses or, sometimes, has no choice in. Edit: of course mum's safety is important, too!
Sometimes I see some gatekeeper idiot that says "real moms give natural birth" and I'm like, okay Debora but you are an alcoholic and you smoke in front of your kids so I don't think you want to discuss who's a better mom.
I had an emergency section with my first as I almost died from pre eclampsia and the baby almost died because the cord was wrapped round her neck- I still had another mom lecture me about having a c section 😐
41 weeks and 3 days of pitocin my wife still wasn’t dilated. C section was not the option we wanted but the baby was safe and were on baby number 3 now. So thankful for my little family!
Hey thanks! I'd always wondered what happened down there when I had my c-section. I "felt" pressure and knew my body was being moved but that's it. Would love to see a video about the body's recovery. It was absolutely brutal. The nurse warned me to sleep as much as I can while the babe was in ICU-glad I listened!
When they were wheeling me down the hall to the operating room I had a panic attack and told my husband no please get me out of here let's come back next week I'm scared! LOL needless to say he didn't break me out of the hospital and I survived and I wasn't too too bad! 😆
I’ve had three c-sections. ☺️ It wasn’t so bad. I can’t imagine having a vaginal birth. I’m really afraid of that. But I’m not having anymore kids anyway. 😒
@@lolita954ify I agree!! I was praying my doctor would let me do a C-section for my second child! I can't imagine having labor pains and a vaginal birth either!
I’ve had two. My first one was a very difficult experience and recovery. My second was with my pre-term baby. It happened so fast. The procedure went smoothly, and the recovery was better for me. My son did great in the NICU. I have two blessings. ❤️
This was so fascinating! I had a c-section 9 months ago and never really knew exactly how they did it but I could certainly feel all of that tugging and moving around and now it makes total sense and actually makes me feel loads better about the surgery because I know they didn't just cut through all those layers of muscle. Thank you for a great video!
Jose Gonzalez Cleopatra. She was the first recorded woman, apparently, to have a C-section. Her son, Caesarian, was born by C-section, hence the name Caesarean section.
Cleopatra may have been the first publicly known, however, I can only imagine how many slaves were operated on without medicine/anesthesia that were initially used as practice who died like guinea pigs in silence.... Help us GOD!!!
Had a C-section almost 4 weeks ago, recovery definitely sucks at first but I’m finally feeling like myself again. Just glad I got to skip labor, my daughter came out safely and beautiful ❤️
Labor is momentary... A C-section can last year's to fully recover. Stomach pains and nerve damage including during sex and with orgasm's. Bad Vaginal deliveries also can cause similar things, but being glad to skip labor does not save you from possible long term issues. I'd highly recommend a bellyfit garment to help your muscles heal and compression has shown to help fast recovery. Lavender and frankincense oil mixed with lemon and oregano oil will help your scar heal and fade and kill any bacteria. Also massaging your entire stomach region. Do not lift anything heaver than your baby for the first 3 months and no matter what any Dr says do not start working out at a gym till 6 months has passed to a year. Many women have started that much to early and their bladers prolapsed into their vaginas when given a free pass after 6 weeks. Hope your recovery keeps getting better
@poets pen Thank you for these tips! I'd like to also add to see a pelvic floor specialist/physiotherapist to help build your pelvic floor muscles and abdomen back up :)
@@istandwithgod2011 I appreciate the tips and yes I am glad because my daughter wouldn’t have made it if I went through the labor process. My amniotic fluid was gone and she was distressed. Her heartbeat was slowing down very fast. I had an emergency C-section, now she’s perfectly healthy and I’m grateful for the route I took.
Recovery from natural is so much easier. I had 2 no epidural naturally and last was a stupid c-section. The upside was she was premature so my hardest days I recovered in the hospital and didn’t have to care for her. By the time I got to hold her my worst recovery days were over.
So wild how some women say they don’t hardly have pain after a c section. I’ve had my back broken, my face shattered on the left side, and I have a huge pain tolerance. And after my c section, I really thought I just might die. It was so hard. I couldn’t even reach over and pick my son up from his bed. I couldn’t move, literally. And when I did it was the worst pain I’ve ever experienced in 25 years. Shoutout to us mommas! Men really have no idea the pain a women goes through to birth a human… to give life. And condolences to this woman for donating her body. So amazing and just beautiful really.
I agree!!!! A video explaining exactly what our ovaries and body goes through dealing with PCOS would be great! I am so curious about what the inside of our body does or how it changes during days when PCOS is really acting up, like when cysts burst. What the cysts look like. Does a woman with PCOS have an unhealthier looking ovary etc.
I had a C section 12 years ago at 38 weeks with my last daughter and afterwards I healed pretty well. My doctor did an excellent job with my incision and stitching, however sometimes I still get sharp pains, pulling sensations, and Itching of my scar. C sections are no joke!!
Me too sharp pains and aching sometimes. I think there's more to it we still have to learn about. Why tear tissue for a c section and still perform episiotomys?
@@rachelharding3601 Whatttt??? Don’t tell me that you got an episiotomy along with your C-Section!! Whew I’m glad my doctor didn’t so that to me!! I would probably still be punching her in the face right today lol!!
I love how you're still respecting the bodies by covering their head and genitals while cutting them to pieces I know it seems ironic but I'd want that if my body ends up in this situation
Donated cadavers are given the utmost respect by doctors and students. They realize the magnitude of the gift they've been given. The staff even gives a memorial service when they are done. Usually there is a certificate or document given to the family honoring the decedent, along with the ashes.
@@shayshe1918 Depends on the country, unfortunately. Where I'm from, most students do treat the donated bodies with utmost respect but there's always at least 2 weird perverts per batch who think it's hilarious to mess around with genitals or arrange cadavers into positions :(
@@shayshe1918 That is amazing! I love this because they themselves wanted their body to be used for future science & practice. They didn't have to do that but they wanted to. So they deserve respect & to be honored as if they were still alive.💗
I had 2 c-sections within 18 months completing my motherhood with a boy and a girl.. and after about 13 years I have no pain related to that... Thank you doctors !! ❤
Me: I’m just going to opt for a C-section when I have kids, pushing seems painful and difficult. Institute of Human Anatomy: Hey, wanna watch a video on C sections? Me: *after watching* You know, adoption seems like a fantastic idea!
LOL But in all seriousness, I had ALWAYS thought I was gonna have a C-section if I ever was to have a baby because natural birth seemed too painful. I have now a 2-year-old son. I gave birth to him through a natural labor but with epidural. And I can tell you there is nothing better. Epidural really works. And the recovery was easy and fast. I would never recommend a C-section to anyone now.
@@KathleenJ that is why we are so fortunate to have C-section as an option. C-sections shouldn’t be taken or done lightly, it shouldn’t be done because a woman didn’t want to do some hard work.
I had my c-section almost 27 yrs ago! My incision is still numb but healed perfectly. My miracle baby is almost 27 & I thank God for her every single day & I thank God for my dr (Dr. Howard) who performed my c-section to bring her into this world! I learned so much from this video Justin so thank you! Things I never knew about till now.
In 2017 I had an emergency c-section. My uterus ruptured while I was in labor in the hospital. We were trying for a VBAC birth, (vaginal after c-section). This was my second and last child. When the OB surgeon discovered what was going wrong, (I had an epidural, so I didn't feel pain but I couldn't breathe well.) She got me into surgery and our son was born no joke, within 10 minutes. He is a happy, healthy and perfect 4 year old today. I'm very grateful for the experienced surgeon. She had only ever had 2 previous patients have a rupture in her 40 ish year career. By the way, she said she had to "puzzle piece" my uterus back together. They didn't remove it, because I had already lost too much blood. This year though in January I had a hysterectomy, and I feel so fantastic. The surgeon showed me a photo of my own scarred, weird looking uterus. It was insane. Anyway womens bodies are incredible.
My sister's last baby her uterus ruptured too! They did emergency cesarian delivery and they say she seized during... She woke to the doctor hold her jaw shut. Possibly went into sudden severe eclampsia. She had not been diagnosed with it during at all. Very terrifying...Her first delivery without any of us sisters or parents there. Praising God she and her daughter survived.
Wow! So amazing! As a mother of 13 full-term natural births, with numerous C-section friends, it’s fascinating to see the anatomy in this way! I’m impressed too, Daniel, with the respect with which you handle cadaver and the admiration you hold for both the birth process AND the human body. Thank you!
@@Idkmanihatethis but you can impreganting someone so maybe, use it as a lesson why c-sec doesn't equate to easy delivery. The recovery process of it is a bitch to handle
Great explanation; Thank you. My spouse had 2 C-sections in the 1970's; the first was an emergency, the 2nd was planned. In each case the cuts were made vertically from just below her naval down into about 3/4 of her pubic hair. Her bladder was 'cut away' & then put back in place once the delivery was done. She was kept in hospital 6 days then sent back home. After the first C-section 'something' (presumably muscle near the area) would 'pull' whenever she moved about causing a sudden lurch of pain & the problem was never resolved. 30 years later she had to have a complete hysterectomy & the tissue from the prior C-sections was so scarred there literally wasn't enough healthy skin tissue to pull back together to allow for the hysterectomy so the surgeon ended up doing a horizontal cut across leaving her with a large 'upside down cross' of scarring which causes her additional pain. Thankfully, C-sections can now be done horizontally but back in the day, a long vertical cut was the only option. Irrespective, it's major surgery and is not the 'easy way out' as so many seem to think it is. Complete healing takes weeks & in some cases leads to permanent problems with pain later on. Would not recommend it as an 'easy' replacement for vaginal birth. Back then, if a woman had one C-section, any additional pregnancies resulted in automatic repeat C-section thus limiting women to 3 children as the majority of doctors wouldn't even consider attempting vaginal birth after the 1st C-section & heavily frowned upon women having more than 3 C-sections. Great that times have changed but irrespective, from those that I've personally spoken to, most of them who've experienced both prefer vaginal births to C-section.
Thank you so much for this amazing visual explanation. 20+ years as a nurse here, and when my daughter had complications during labor, necessitating an urgent c-section, I couldn't fully comprehend when the OB doc told me, "that her bowel had become trapped/stuck in front of her uterus..." My daughter suffered an agonizing labor, not knowing her pain was basically compromised circulation to her bowel and not just "labor pain". I am so thankful things turned out relatively ok, considering what could have happened. My grandson did have to spend several days in the NICU secondary to profound hypoglycemia but is now a healthy 2.5 year old. Thanks again for this education! :)
My sister's obgyn gave her a c section just because he was going on vacation and wanted to deliver the baby before that. She had a completely healthy and typical pregnancy with literally no medical reason for a c section smh. Please ladies, be careful of who you chose to help guide you through your pregnancy and delivery!
Oh I agree, some people don't realize that neither way of giving birth is easy and they assume the C-Section is better. I hope she wasn't in so much pain her vacation wasn't a relaxing experience >.< I was lucky to have birthed both my babies naturally, but I know women that had a C-section done and can still have problems years later. Me? I may still pee a little after a hard sneeze xD I'd take that over pain any day. (TMI, but childbirth is a nasty and disgusting, yet a miraculous and amazing thing! All parts of it need to be known so maybe people know more about what they're getting into... and I'm working on strengthening muscles to fix my Tinkel Bell problem)
My Dr did this to me :( He tried to force me into labour and it didn't work so he induced me and by the next morning my son was almost dead. They rushed me in for an emergency c section. The doctor said he had to get as many babies out as he could before January 1st 2011 because apparently the government had some payment starting for working mums after that date... So he practically put my life at risk and my sons for his bonus pay check.
I had a C-section 29 years ago at 36 weeks of pregnancy due to Toxemia/Pre-eclampsia. My son was 6 lbs 4 oz and 19.5 in long! They tried to induce me for a day, but because it was four weeks before the due date, he had not "dropped" yet, and it didn't work (zero dilation and only 50% effacement). I used to joke that he wasn't even in the neighborhood! Thank God for this procedure, or we both would have died. Your video was very interesting. Thank you for making it. I would love to see a real C-section!
When barbers began making more cutting people than hair they banded together and that became the barber surgeon. When they realized that midwives made more money they started delivering babies but for most and still they are surgeons.
Thank goodness someone just explained what I had to go through twice, so traumatic and he explains it with visuals...After 8 years I finally get closure. Thank you. Seriously. My mental health thanks you indeed.
animals are just like us the same digestive tract, muscles sexual organs, they feel like us only they can't tell us. The part of the muscle that lies beneath the umbilical cord looks like the meat the put in supermarkets-
I had a c-section about two months ago. I knew they had to open you up to do the procedure. I didn't know how they'd do it or what it entailed and that is what scared me the most when it came down to helping my baby come into the world safely. Watching this video and seeing how I recovered, I feel blessed to have the body I have. It went through hell to bring my baby girl into the world. Recovery has taken longer than I want. However, seeing my baby girl makes it all worth it. Thanks for this video. It definitely changed my mind on the view of my own c-section.
I just had my first child via C sections 11 weeks ago and I was also 40. My husband keeps asking, "when are we going to have another one?" I tend to walk away when he asks.
Tara Daviie It’s better that you know even if it’s kinda cringe inducing. I had an emergency c-section and it saved my daughter and me. Best of luck on everything!
Don't think about it. Don't stress your self out. If you do get a C-section, your body knows what to do , just take good care of your self. PS . You'll forget all the pain after seeing the face of your beautiful baby 👶🏻
I had two c-sections. I went through labor both times. My first was 27 hours of labor. I did labor with my second also. It was determined that my uterus was tipped. Both of my babies were face up vrs face down. Thank you for sharing this. I always find your videos very educational!
I may end up having a c section due to where my baby’s placenta is located at...all depends on my very last ultrasound to see if it has moved at all :( wish me luck
Halyn Boyd do you have an anterior placenta? I’m currently 22 weeks and was told I have one! I just hope it moves because I’m not trying to have a c sec!!
Paris Davis low laying anterior placenta! My wonderful doctor noticed it early on and has been keeping an eye on it! Currently 24 weeks and still hasn’t moved and I’m already showing quite a bit. I only have one more 3D ultrasound to see if it has moved. If not we will plan on a c section as my birth plan!! Let’s pray our placentas change positions so we can have a normal vaginal birth!!❤️
Halyn Boyd I was told my placenta was right in front of the baby at 19 weeks. My doctor ask if I felt my baby kick yet and I said no and she said it’s because of my placenta. Im now feeling my baby kick so I hope it’s because my placenta moved! I have an ultrasound next week so I will find out for sure. Yes I will pray! I really hopes yours moves! Good luck&congrats🙏🏾❤️
Cesarean section mom 25 years ago!! Neat to watch! My son is now married, college graduate and looking to purchase their first home! It was 18 hours of hard labor followed by an emergency cesarean d/t his heart rate dropping and me not dilating. Afterwards he was in the NICU with neonatal sepsis. Scariest part ever!! My doctor and the nurses were so amazing though and were so concerned about me it kept my emotions from getting too overwhelming. I still have pain, tenderness, itching and numbness in the incision. C -sections are seriously no joke! 8 weeks later I had to have a cholecystectomy (gall bladder removal). 2 major abdominal surgeries in 8 weeks! Talk about rough recovery! But, I’d do it again in a heartbeat to have my son!! All you fellow c-section moms are rockstars!!
This actually made me feel a lot more relaxed about C-sections. I always thought they only made one cut, through the muscles and everything and that's what scared me about the procedure. This shows that understanding really is an empowering thing!
don't get too relaxed about c section.. because if the doctor does'nt stitch up properly layer by layer after the operation, it's gonna be a messed up situation afterwards. And i'm not even making things up
a cut in the linea alba is still a cut on connective tissue that affects recovery of the muscle all the same, c sections are still a surgical procedure and should not be taken lightly. In addition as another has mentioned severe complications can occur, 9.5% of anual deaths in US happen due to medical malpractice, this is not counting close calls or life changing outcomes.
This was really interesting. I had an emergency c-section. From when the decision was made to when the baby was born, it all took about 10 minutes. I know there are some places that coat the baby with vaginal fluid during the procedure just to make sure the baby gets the proper bacteria. Doubt they did that with mine. My son has had issues with his digestive system, so we shall see what comes of that. In my case it was to save us both, we were both basically dead when it was all over. Even though he was 41 weeks, he spent 14 days in NICU and I had 4 bags of blood transfused. Just 60 years ago neither of us would have survived. I'm grateful that I live in a country with modern medicine.
I was born from a C-section and I had some digestive issues that brought me to the doctor when still being a baby. I don't even eat many things today. It'd be interesting to know if it's caused by the way I was born.
That transfer vaginal liquid procedure is called “vaginal seeding”. There’s an NIH approved clinical trial called ACTIVATE in regards to vaginal seeding if delivering at Mount Sinai In NYC. Moms go through a screening phase that they need to pass to make sure nothing bad transfers to the baby.

Thank u for the learning lesson. The medical field is amazing. So is the human body. 🏥 🏨 💉🩹🩼🩺🩻🔬🧬
Let's take a moment to thank the woman who donated her body to science so that you could learn this stuff. She was a person.
Thanks for acknowledging that 🙌 that is a human being who's soul is gone on, but it's still them. Those intestines nourished her, that uterus bled every month, those muscles helped her move. Her whole life. It's beautiful and sad at the same time.
Wait can you explain to me how? Like what happened and how did they cut out her body etc. sorry I don’t know a lot of stuff like thus
@@deenibeeniable wow, thank you for the explanation. And praying for the soul of the woman who donated her body for future knowledge.
I feel the same, thank for this woman, and everyone else, who donates their body to science. They also help save other people's life, even in their death, plus help new medical students to learn. She must be a nice lady.
My respect.
I had a c-section 10 years ago. I still have pain in my incision; I have nerve damage! Those who say a c-section is the easy way out...absolutely not! Taking care of a newborn while recovering from major surgery is challenging. Either way, my son is the love of my life and such a blessing.
God bless you and your family hun. Thank you for all you did and do to take care of your child/family and yourself. You're an awesome mother and a beautiful daughter of God. May He prosper you and that everything you touch succeeds. Take care 😇🌺💖.
Yes I have had 3 and I still feel it when I pick up something too heavy or twist weird. It hurt bad after my first for over a year.
@@jessicakennedy9376 see, I’ve had 3 as well but my biggest thing is the LACK of feeling! Can’t feel a thing in my lower belly lol
I get so many urine infections since having a c-section with my youngest. Absolutely hated everything about the c-section compared to all my natural births. I was emotional before I even had the c-section about having to get one & cried through the entire process. It felt like my body couldn't do what it had done 4 times previously and what it was naturally created to do. Plus the recovery process is much longer and more painful (a hot burning sensation when you move, cough, sneeze or laugh). I found myself still very emotional for a further 3 weeks after the procedure. I would never recommend a c-section over natural birth unless medically necessary.
I got the bikini cut both times and now I have no feeling, nerve damage.
Much respect to the women who have done this to bring their loved one on this earth. You are brave & stronger than you know.
Thanks ❤️
Lovely comment ❤️❤️
easton goode what do you mean? Whether to have a c section or not?
easton goode oh ok I understand now
easton goode Are you an incel? Chill. It was a nice comment
I had my second c section last week. Thank you to the person who donated her body to science so I can see exactly what they do and how they do it. I appreciate you. Rest peacefully. ❤️
❤
Amen ❤
You never realize how much you use your stomach muscles until you have a C-section. I couldn't cough, burp, sneeze, laugh, etc. Without being in pain.
I laughed and ended up in tears when I was done quite a few times myself 😬
Laughing is the worst
Basically any kind of abdominal surgery. Even a heavy sigh hurt.
I remember my Aunt made me laugh, then I cried for 30 minutes after from pain 😭
Amen
Did I get better understanding: Yes
Did I get any peace of mind: No
😂
Don't worry! I have had 4 C sections , I went in, they put me to sleep, about an hour later, I woke up and they brought me my baby. Each time, I felt nothing. All my kids were perfect in every way. Had my 1st one in 1995!
mine were scheduled , not an emergency
@@OpethianDream Ur amazing!!
@@nknae3115 Awe thanks! May God send you blessings in abundance!
My 1st c sec was due to cord wrapped around my daughter's neck. 2nd one was due to having cervical cancer & 90% of my cervix was removed at 3 mos. pregnant. Both daughters born healthy. Had cervical cancer 3 yrs later, had last of cervix removed. 15 yrs later had radical hysterectomy due to cancer about to return. God is good! I am still cancer free after 14 yrs. later. I give God the glory for watching over my babies, my doctors & myself!
God is great always give him honour and glory amen
So happy for you 🥰
God is gracious!
Wow, what a story!! You have certainly been blessed by God time after time. If I ever get cancer, I will remember your story and have Hope!! Thanks for sharing!!
Stop boasting about a god who also gave you cancer! Belief is private! So keep it private!
I’ve had two C-Sections and it was a painful recovery.
The first one was an emergency C-Section, the 2nd was planned because I had one previously.
At the end of the day it was worth the pain and recovery.
My oldest daughter is 40 years old and my youngest is 37 years old.
They are my heart and they blessed me with 4 grandchildren!
I’m so blessed!
Your experience sounds just like mine. My oldest is now 23 and my youngest is 18. They have filled my life with happiness. It was well worth it all. 😁
Same here just different age children
Me too
Same here I have a 3 & 4 yr
Me too. 2 planned as I had breach babies. My girls are 22 and 19. I dread sneezing so painful. My 2 c section went wrong so I had to have a botched emergency tummy tuck. I was told never to have any more babies. I was gutted!
I’m putting a “sorry :(“ on my mom’s card for Mother’s Day, she really went through hell to get my stubborn ass out of there lmao
My mum went through CS for me too. Feeling so bad for putting her through it.
lol
my mom went thru 3 c sections 😭

C-section is no joke. I am so thankful and blessed that I had both of my kids, naturally with no complications. Moms are super hero’s.
Same! Had a natural delivery no complications and without the use of pain meds, truly grateful
No clue why this was recommended to me. But I watched it anyway.
Same here lol
same 😂
Same.
Omg same 🤦♀️🤣
Omg me too,
It’s really crazy seeing just how small the uterus actually is and how big it has to get
RomanLegion it looks so weird but so cool though!
Really makes you understand what women endure during pregnancy
It’s because this body is from a 90 year old woman
nobaddays well yes but it’s still relatively small in the cavity of a healthy younger woman, roughly the size of a large upside down pear
It's actually a lot larger than that of the cadaver, the uterus tends to decrease in size after childbearing age. It's pretty much as big as the cavity it was in.
I wish all my high school and college teachers were as passionate about the subject they were teaching as this guy is. I was hanging in his every word!
I agree. The enthusiasm in the subject matter is truly phenomenal. I'm thinking he's a obgyn.
That's why I have watched nearly all their videos. I appreciate them so very much. It's why I just signed the paperwork to donate my body to my nearby medical school. I hope others here consider doing so as well. If nothing else, it saves on funeral expenses (that's a joke; don't mean to be disrespectful.).
I had 2 c sections ,my daughter is 1 year 7 months ,and delivered second baby on july 17th 2023 ,its been 5 weeks ,im taking care of both alone ,those 2 weeks are deadly pain even now having backache,but proud be an mother .
Omg we all grew inside a body like this. Deep inside a safe warm body. How absolutely insane to open a person and find another person!! I’m totally blown away by this and I’m not even high.
I was lucky enough to have a successful C-section 14 months ago, and it was actually a *pleasant* experience. I was completely numb from the chest down and literally felt NOTHING except pressure when my daughter was being pulled out. I do not tolerate pain well, and I was in little to no pain afterwards- only took Tylenol and Advil combo when I was recovering. Shout out to my damn self for going through this, to bring my world into this world!
If you don’t tolerate pain well, how did you manage to tolerate it during spine extremely painful anesthesia?
@@userwhogivesopinion I had this done three times, the spinal block isn't that bad because they numb the site locally first. It isn't comfortable, but it's less painful than the contractions I was having that weren't doing anything except stressing my baby that was breech and had already passed meconium in utero.
Lucky! I felt so much during my c section lol. I'm happy my baby came out safe and sound too though. And it really is so worth it. You just can't understand until it happens 💗
Same here I've had three I never took the painkillers they give just only the ibuprofen afterwards. I feel back to normal in 2 weeks
@@rickeybobbie you felt normal after 2 weeks? I haven’t been right since mine lol and it’s been 3 years.

Thanks headed to my 5th one in 5months
My mom had three C sections and I can’t even imagine having one
Bless their uteruses!!!
Thank You♡
Wow… watching this as a c-section mom, all I can think is: I am an absolute goddess. Seriously, as a parent you become completely focussed on your kids and it’s easy to forget what a bad ass human being you are for bringing them into the world.

Lonely Dog hi! I’m a current med student so not 100% sure what they use, but in my next school they insert a catheter into the jugular vein and fill it with embalming fluid. They then refrigerate the bodies for about a year
So you mean to say me that this is not some replica model but a original preserved one??

Oh really don't know. I thought they are made of pure plastic .
@@safihameed1649 the bodies in these videos are donated. It's a real cadaver, he even says that it was a 90 year old woman in the video
I had 5 of them and my stomach is numb. I have constant back pain that just shoots up my spine. Big love to us C-section moms. 🎉
Same with my mother. I was born by c section but my younger sister was normal delivery. Guess my head was too large
😮😮😮
Can you do kegels. They help the back too.
How many times can a woman have a C section if its with the first 3kids tht means u had 3 after another. I believe tht a woman can only have 3can they give u more just asking when all 3 kids were c section?
I have only had 1 C. I didn't know the numbness was common.
Funny story... I’ve had 3 c sections and I never knew the details of what was going on. Now, I’m glad I didn’t. LOL!
I had four... and I have been very curious!! This video is fascinating. I hope school my kids now... I think I'll make this video required watching when they are in highschool biology ;)
Same here, and I've had 6 of them! When he was describing how the surgeons will tear the layers underneath the dermis layers, I was like 🤯 I always assumed they just cut straight through every layer to get inside the abdominal cavity (and I suppose that might be the procedure in an emergency situation 🤔🤷🏼♀️)...all that to say this was a very interesting and informative video!
Me too! Amen. Ignorance is bliss.
@@lilannegirl03 yes. Me too! I was like gee now I know why I felt like I got hit by a truck! Also why pooping is an act of god.

Literally just had a c section five days ago😅 scariest thing of my life. And let me tell you... PAINFUL! I’m finally feeling a bit better but still can’t do anything myself. It’s a blessing that my daughter is here safe though.
Each day gets better!! I had one last year. 😁
I had 4 of them and I agree with the previous commenter each day gets better. Just take it easy and allow your body to heal. And word of advice to heal a little faster, breastfeed.
Same here,and it hurts like hell
I had a C-section with my first and 2 vbacs with no meds. The natural birth was way easier than my C-section was. I couldn't sleep for like a month with my C-section and I didn't get to hold my son for 2 hours. I don't know know why but I felt like I was still waiting to give birth and they were handing me someone else's baby, which completely messed up the bonding experience.
Congratulations (late!) Hoping both you and baby are doing wonderfully!!!
I’ve had all my 4 children by C-Section!! I cried so much my first time but it had to be done ASAP due to emergency complications.. But I was practically bullied and said so many bad things by family members that I wasn’t considered a true mother because of my C-Sections and that only a true mother our those who don’t have this procedure done.. But now as I have learned what a woman goes through and how it truly looks like I ignore the ignorance because I’m truly blessed of having my children and doesn’t matter how they came just as long as they got here in great health..Thanks for this video!! 👍🏻
What a horrible thing to say to a mother. I’m so sorry you went through that. I hope you distanced yourself and your children from those toxic people.

Your fam sounds awful
Yes, having a c-section was one of the most challenging afterwards I was afraid to cough, move, go to the bathroom because it was painful. I do have nerve damage as well. Definitely a process of recovery while trying to take care of a newborn.
My mom had an emergency c-section with me but the doctor left the placenta in and she almost died. Needless to say that doctor is no longer a doctor
Wow that must of been a horrific process to go had to go through.
Where did he go that told him to leave the placenta in?? Shit man. Hope your mom is okay
I imagine that the placental tissue becomes necrotic and would lead to a major infection. I'm glad that your mother survived and sorry she had that experience :(

Exactly what I did😂😂🥺
You poor thing I've had 2
Well I have had 2 c-section nervous to watch.
Seeing this actually makes me sad . The bodies must belong to women who didn't make it during a procedure?
My mom had a C-Section to have me and now I'm crying thinking about everything she had to go through and the trauma of the surgery :'( I need to give her a hug!
Atiq M At the end of 2018 I had a C section and my little man was born. Don’t worry, your kids are worth it! Although it’s weird seeing this explained, I have to admit 😄
if I ever get pregnant the baby's just going to have to stay in there.
😆
Birthing vaginally is an option, although not for every case. The U.S. is performing WAY to many so there's this cultural of normalization of Csections, 1 in 3 isnt normal, I wish doctors would actually just give women more time to labor and do what the body can.
Lol ha ha good luck with that
Wait until the child is ready to go to college 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I did a surgical rotation and was able to watch many different doctors perform sections. Having had 2 myself, I truly appreciate the doctors that take the time to suture each layer separately. It makes such a difference for mom’s healing!
After 2 sections, I needed a hysterectomy at 28yo due to severe scar tissue that was causing constrictions so bad, I couldn’t straighten my abdomen or stand up completely straight without literally feeling a tearing/ripping feeling in my abdomen. My surgeon was shocked at how bad it was. It took him an hour just to remove the web of adhesions that sort of cocooned my abdominal cavity. Once that was cleared away, he said he couldn’t visualize my uterus or left ovary. My uterus had been pulled and cocooned into my pelvis & the ovary was tangled up in adhesions & intestine.
He explained to me later that his opinion was that during my sections, I was closed up very haphazardly, instead of layer by layer, allowing adhesions to become so invasive.
All I know is that I felt like a new person after that surgery. I could move & stretch & twist without feeling like something inside of me was being torn apart.
Great video!
Ouch!!!!!!!!!
This is such an informative comment! I am currently pregnant and planning c section…
I will sure ask about layer by layers suturing before surgery.
I had two “c-sections” due to fibroids (I don’t have kids), and this video made me realize why I was in so much pain and feeling like I would burst open if I stood up. Our body heals amazingly and my double scar is barely visible. This video also made me appreciate even more the skillful hands of my doctor who performed both surgeries and sadly, passed away last September due to COVID. Stay safe everyone, for you and your loved ones but also for those silent heroes that give their lives for their patients.
Why did you have 2 c sections ? What is fibroids? Thank you !
I also had a c section, I have 1 child & after pushing for 13 hours and her not coming out they said I needed a c section & now after watching this I'm blessed too, my scar is basically soooo tiny & I healed quick. But my stomach still hurts and it's been 8 years since I gave birth. I can't even get up laying on my back I need to roll over side ways in order to get up .
I'm sorry for the loss of your doctor too.
@@Danielle-ii8zc Fibroids are tumors in the womb, usually they are not cancerous but they can be dangerous in other ways. They can grow in size and cause hemorrhage, the first one I had did that to me it was almost 10 cms when it was removed. A friend had one that weighed 1 kg! And gave her no trouble except for recurrent bladder infections... so, some women have them and don’t realize it, others battle with them in different ways. My second surgery was preventive because I had many smaller fibroids appear in a short period of time, so they were removed before they grew. last time I checked I was clean of them but they could appear again so I need to check every year.
@@Danielle-ii8zc that's the only surgery they can perform to remove the very large fibroids in the uterus
If all my teachers were this passionate about their subjects, I'm almost sure I'd get all As
The guy in the video was my anatomy instructor in massage school. He's awesome! I totally think his passion for teaching helped me get an A in the class
Literally tho! If teachers were more passionate I would have passed!
Well, technically, the dragon of the west thought you.
dude i never thought i would find zuko’s honor
X to doubt. Don't blame teachers for your failures. I aced all my college courses without attending the lectures.
I was in the OR during each of my wife's 3 C-Sections. When my most recent daughter, Nora was born the OR staff didn't want me to stand up and look at the surgical process (because Dad's pass out). But I stood up and watched the entire process of birthing our children, and most of the closure. AND, my wife was conscious for all but 1, the one we lost. But the other two, my wife was conscious, talking, asking questions, excitedly awaiting a new baby! The magic of modern medical wonders!
Im sorry about the one you lost, I cant imagine that kind of pain... My husband was in the room for all 3 of my C-Sections too.. In fact, with the first one he was trying to keep me awake (blood loss) by explaining what the Doctors were doing in detail. I didnt pass out but if there was anything in my stomach I would have lost it. My second one he knew better than to tell me about it but instead asked me if I wanted a mirror, no thanks and with the twins, he just watched, amazed, didnt say anything but was loving every minute of it.
Sorry for your loss! 🙏
She might have been normal and asked questions during procedure but in post op and for 24 to 48 hrs after surgery it will be hell lot of pain.
I watched my sister and she had twins
My husband was supposed to to record. He was so facinated. He forgot! 😁
Have pictures though..
This is amazing you made this video! I am a mother of 3 c-section babies. My first child I was in labor for over 27hours they had to induce me break my water and I was only able to dilate to 4 1/2 cm I was stuck at that for 12 hrs. They rushed me into an emergency caesarean. The doc came in at 6pm to check me and I was in the OR at 6:20 and my son was born at 6:54pm. My doctor said for my second and third child I most likely wouldn’t be able to dilate due to my body not dilating during my first delivery so I had 2 more planned/ scheduled caesarean’s. It was a very scary thing to go through but as soon as you hear your baby cry it’s unimaginable emotions that overcome you and I wasn’t scared once I heard my son’s first cry. Thank you so much for making this video I really appreciated watching it!!
Man I know this is obvious and everything but I'm amazed I can watch such a quality video, with super clear explanations for a viewer who is nowhere near the medical field, for free, literally on my bed. It's incredible the knowledge that gets shared, and with such good quality. The fact this is not even my line of work makes it even better in some way. I don't know what to do with this but every second was passionating. Thank you !
I had an emergency c section and my son died after birth 💔 God’s strength in me is the only reason I’ve chosen to still be here today 😢
Oh no. 😔 Im praying for your wellness. Stay strong. 💖💖 Your now a mom of an angel. Hugssss
You are a strong woman. And I am really sorry for your loss
I'm sorry 😔
I'm sorry for your lost, I know everything will get better with God's help and strength, keep trusting Him. ❤
You’ve experienced a great loss. Keep putting one foot in front of the other. It will take a little while, but there will come a day when you will feel some joy again.💖
I watched a C-section as a nursing student. I was SHOCKED when the surgeon pulled the uterus out and had it standing up on the abdomen. This was after the baby and placenta were delivered in order to do a bilateral tubal ligation. It is no wonder that women are in such pain afterwards. YIKES!
I’m an OB nurse. I’ve watch MANY c sections. They’re brutal to watch with how much effort is put in to get the baby out! I routinely care for postpartum patients and tell them not to be heroes and take pain medication when needed because if they had seen what their body went through!
I actually felt them push stuff back in. I had severe pain above the diaphragm where the anesthesia was not used. I literally yelled "ow!"
Do not be afraid - you will be fine with or without a c- section . This is only showing science. Birth is amazing and can be pain free
During my C-section nearly 26 years ago, my bladder was taken out (for delivery) and I'd bet more was cut than in this video. The area under my navel is still numb from the nerves never re-attaching.
Omg!! I had that exact experience during nursing school. I was amazed
After having 2 vaginal births, due to complications and placenta previa with my 3rd I had to have a C-section. Watching this video gave me a better understanding as to what exactly happened during mine and a good idea of why I have some of the issues I now have with my lower abdomen. This video is very informative and I appreciate the time taken to walk me and others through the process... Doctors are not always willing to give full explanations of how a procedure is done I think it is because they may precieve it as information unneeded. Like regardless if I tell you how it is done, you won't understand or it doesn't matter if you know it doesn't effect you in grand scheme of things.... But I live in this body, it's the only one I'm ever gonna have I'd like to know exactly what is being done to it, even if the Dr or whomever thinks it's not pertinent information. So again Thank you for sharing.
yeah doctors don't usually take time to explain.. so thank god we have this internet and all the information on UA-cam. I watched full videos of c sections on youtube to get the idea of what is going to happen during me c section 😅
Last year at the ripe age of 37, I had my first ever pregnancy & didn't have child labour pains. Due to medical complications, I had an emergency caeseran. Now I'm watching this to understand the entire operation.
I love watching this because a c-section saved me and my moms life.
Mom had a huge myoma (tumor) in her uterus while she was pregnant with me. She was told by several doctors that she needed an abortion and the tumor removed because it could kill her. She refused to terminate the pregnancy and went on to find a doctor willing to help her as long as she’s willing to be confined in her 6th month. They couldn’t remove the tumor in the uterus because at the time they didn’t have the expertise and resources to do the procedure while I was still developing inside her.
She stayed in the hospital for the rest of her pregnancy. I was never able to turn in her womb with the risk of being choked by my umbilical chord. Her tumor also grew as fast as I did. She had a scheduled c-section, once I was out they also removed her whole uterus as well. She really took a gamble because she wanted me to be born and happy.
It’s only been 24 years and now women with a similar case as her have even better chances to survive their pregnancies. I appreciate how far we have advanced in the fields of medicine and science so mothers like my mom can live long lives with their kids.
You have an amazing mom :)
@@DrCatdeJong She sure is! Since then she has been so supportive and helpful of my older sister and my sister-in-laws with their pregnancies and I have no doubt when my time comes she will be there with me ❤
You’re mom is the best!!!🙌
Your mom knew you were going to be special and a blessing to this world!
So much respect for your mom✨ lots of love to her!! xx
And People wonder why mothers are so crazy and obsessed with there kids. Literally risking life for us all generation after generation.
It's true, Im obsessed with my kiddo.
I wouldn't really say risking their life (maternal death rate .000174%) but definitely a painful and inconvenient experience.
@@dooman2018 it's still risking our lives no matter how decreased the death rate due to giving birth is
@DOOMAN Still life threatening, there is still the percentage who die during child birth, 3 souls within my family and friends lost to PPH. So yes child birth being life threats is very much a valid statement regardless of percentages. Purely because you do not know who or when it is going to effect somebody.
@@dooman2018 we take for granted the act of childbirth and c-sections and deem it routine forgetting that each carries with it very real risks, e.g. PPH even more so if you look at other parts of the world where the maternal death rate is higher. My mother was a postpartnum nurse for 30 years and she’s told me some incredibly sad stories of new mothers whose life ended after giving birth.
Good bless this women who gave us the opportunity to see this procedure. May she rest in peace. I myself had a c section and it wasn't the most pleasant experience! But not having this I know my son wouldn't have been saved. A miracle in every sense☺️
I had to have a c-section. The recovery was long and brutal. I’m just so glad my son was born alive and healthy.
Bless you ladies who donated your bodies! We're so lucky to have you as a learning aid. ❤️ Xxx
I'm about to have my baby in a few weeks, for some reason this makes me feel less afraid to have a c-section if things don't go as planned. I feel more educated and less doomed.
So glad to hear this!
I had to have an emergency C-section with my first I promise it is not terrible. Yes you will have pain and yes it will burn at the sight of the incision( it is a major operation) but it is bearable. If you have to have one get up and walk as soon as you can it will hurt like no other at first but I promise it really helps and also stay on top of your pain meds while in the hospital if you have a good nurse they will bring you your meds before the other has worn off trust me if they ask if you want the medicine even if you don’t feel the pain say yes because when it hits it hurts. My 2nd C-section the did not let me up and put a waist trainer on me and the nurses did not stay on top of my pain meds and so my 2nd was way worse than my first!! I tell people all the time do not let them put the waist trainer on you or bandage you like that because once they take it off the pain all hits at once!
Best of luck and congratulations!
I had an emergency section with my first and honestly it really isn’t so bad. Yes it is painful afterwards and that first sneeze after a section is scary but you will be suprised at how quickly
You get over that pain xx good luck and congratulations x
I’m sorry, but I do not agree with the comments above. C-sections varies a lot, when it comes to pain for some reason. I was unable to stand up by myself and had to use a wheelchair. I was on oxynorm for the first 8 days or so and now I’m on tramadol. So you can’t really say “I promise, it’s not that bad” because this widely varies from person to person. Some feel almost no pain and are fine after to days, some still feel pain after months, etc.
Ida Pedersen your saying “I” this and “I” that .. u notice that? everybody different
Fascinating! Ive always wanted to see this. I’ve had three c-sections and couldn’t see what was happening. Having a pre-planned c-section is so… much easier than having gone through labor, only to realize you couldn’t deliver naturally. Your body isn’t worn out and doesn’t have to recoup from labor and surgery.
The act of giving birth, whether c-section or vaginal, is absolutely amazing and miraculous. I mean it’s literally removing a fully formed human from your body that wasn’t there nine months prior.
EDIT: Wow, these comments are salty! If you don’t want to have kids then don’t have kids. But don’t shit on the process and be rude about people who do. I had a great birthing experience and zero complications. It’s definitely possible for it not to be traumatic.
Its revolting
Gross
@@LincolnTheLabrador fuck off 😂
That shit is overrated and not worth the trauma you put your body and personal health through.
@J K after seeing what my mom had to go through for years after and what she continues to struggle with, it's honestly not.
I had an emergency c section four months ago. Literally the most painful thing I have ever felt in my whole life. It hurt to walk for days. It was worth it though because my daughter is a beautiful little angel :)
Thank you for this informative video, I had no idea what they did to me down there as I was heavily sedated
I had a c-section 6 years ago and I wouldn't trade my son for the world, but I'm STILL healing from the c-section.😓
I have had 3 c sections because my body apparently wouldn't open to give birth. That first one was horrible and I feared having anymore babies because I didn't want to go through that again. But once you have that first one you pose a risk of trying to do it vaginally (it's called a V-Back) so I was told I'd never be able to give birth vaginally.
That 2nd c section was a breeze and so was my 3rd. You do not have nowhere near the pain as with the first one
To all of the amazing mothers that have endured this procedure,
I sincerely apologize for thinking that a C-Section was easier than a vaginal birth. I was ignorant🤦🏼♀️
I've had 2... the 1st was 3 weeks late, induced labor for 12 hours per day for 5 days & I still wasn't dilated enough, at which point I was ready to murder the doctor if he'd come close enough to my bed... so then he scheduled the c-section.
The 2nd one, I explained to the doctor what happened with the 1st time... and that got me scheduled... and I requested tubal ligation & got it. LOL 😄
TY! I almost died.
@ ❤️
@@freebird4603 ❤️
Wonderful words, my thanks ❤️
I had 2 c sections, first one had to be an emergency c section due to my baby boy coming out with his legs first, after that the dr closed me up and messed up and now I have to have a c section every time I have a baby.. shout out to all women who have to go through one!! You are all strong and amazing women, god bless you guys ♥️
OMG. You're a strong woman and thanks for the advice
Blessings to u! I had two c sections in a span of 13 months! With the first one being an emergency due to placental abruption. 4 years down I still feel pain in the incision, still recovering.. God bless all mothers!
I have had 2,emergency for premier twins premature sorry and the second scar tissue from the first How horrible people can be to you about it !As if you’re to posh to push One woman told me l was disgusting and hoped they make you push If l had l would of died.Unreal hey !
This fear of doctor messing up the stitching process is killing me.. i had my second c section 3 weeks before😥
I was born legs first. It depends of a doctor.If he is unexperienced he'll do c-section and he does not have to do it.Its sad
I’m 23 with one baby. I had an emergency c-section with him when I was 27 weeks. He’s now 2 and doing great🙂❤️

Wow that's amazing thank God he's ok
Nobody caaaaares
@@Warrior_of_Symbolica pls-💀
Congratulations!!! I'm glad your baby is healthy💛💙💜💚❤
Any birth that brings baby into the world safely is a good birth - there should be no shame for which type of birth a mom chooses or, sometimes, has no choice in.
Edit: of course mum's safety is important, too!
Sometimes I see some gatekeeper idiot that says "real moms give natural birth" and I'm like, okay Debora but you are an alcoholic and you smoke in front of your kids so I don't think you want to discuss who's a better mom.
@@argyelanadam It's the same kind of gatekeeping with breastfeeding and weaning and potty training - moms can't win for trying
I had an emergency section with my first as I almost died from pre eclampsia and the baby almost died because the cord was wrapped round her neck- I still had another mom lecture me about having a c section 😐
I had 2 emergency csection
41 weeks and 3 days of pitocin my wife still wasn’t dilated. C section was not the option we wanted but the baby was safe and were on baby number 3 now. So thankful for my little family!
Hey thanks! I'd always wondered what happened down there when I had my c-section. I "felt" pressure and knew my body was being moved but that's it. Would love to see a video about the body's recovery. It was absolutely brutal. The nurse warned me to sleep as much as I can while the babe was in ICU-glad I listened!
I've had 3 C-sections! I had 1 emergency section and 2 planned. I had no complications so I was very lucky to have some amazing doctors and nurses ❤️
All of the steps done prior to baby being out and cord cut takes place in 3 minutes or less. It's amazing to witness!

When they were wheeling me down the hall to the operating room I had a panic attack and told my husband no please get me out of here let's come back next week I'm scared! LOL needless to say he didn't break me out of the hospital and I survived and I wasn't too too bad! 😆
I’ve had three c-sections. ☺️ It wasn’t so bad. I can’t imagine having a vaginal birth. I’m really afraid of that. But I’m not having anymore kids anyway. 😒
@@lolita954ify I agree!! I was praying my doctor would let me do a C-section for my second child! I can't imagine having labor pains and a vaginal birth either!
Thanks Luke...I had 2 sons....it was great cuz I was awake and no pain....plus my female parts stayed in shape👍👍👍
I’ve had two. My first one was a very difficult experience and recovery. My second was with my pre-term baby. It happened so fast. The procedure went smoothly, and the recovery was better for me. My son did great in the NICU. I have two blessings. ❤️
This was so fascinating! I had a c-section 9 months ago and never really knew exactly how they did it but I could certainly feel all of that tugging and moving around and now it makes total sense and actually makes me feel loads better about the surgery because I know they didn't just cut through all those layers of muscle. Thank you for a great video!
I think it's fascinating, too.😀
Imagine how many c sections humans had to do to get the perfect technique and the woman who went through it before that technique came to be
Jose Gonzalez Cleopatra. She was the first recorded woman, apparently, to have a C-section. Her son, Caesarian, was born by C-section, hence the name Caesarean section.
@@pommiebears this was quite informative. I never knew that
@@pommiebears wow thank for the info...a nice piece of history to know
Cleopatra may have been the first publicly known, however, I can only imagine how many slaves were operated on without medicine/anesthesia that were initially used as practice who died like guinea pigs in silence.... Help us GOD!!!
@@gwendolynhinson4496 good point
Had a C-section almost 4 weeks ago, recovery definitely sucks at first but I’m finally feeling like myself again. Just glad I got to skip labor, my daughter came out safely and beautiful ❤️
The first was bad. the next 2 easy then my last was hell. Boys r easier.
Labor is momentary... A C-section can last year's to fully recover. Stomach pains and nerve damage including during sex and with orgasm's.
Bad Vaginal deliveries also can cause similar things, but being glad to skip labor does not save you from possible long term issues.
I'd highly recommend a bellyfit garment to help your muscles heal and compression has shown to help fast recovery. Lavender and frankincense oil mixed with lemon and oregano oil will help your scar heal and fade and kill any bacteria. Also massaging your entire stomach region. Do not lift anything heaver than your baby for the first 3 months and no matter what any Dr says do not start working out at a gym till 6 months has passed to a year. Many women have started that much to early and their bladers prolapsed into their vaginas when given a free pass after 6 weeks.
Hope your recovery keeps getting better
@poets pen Thank you for these tips! I'd like to also add to see a pelvic floor specialist/physiotherapist to help build your pelvic floor muscles and abdomen back up :)
@@istandwithgod2011 I appreciate the tips and yes I am glad because my daughter wouldn’t have made it if I went through the labor process. My amniotic fluid was gone and she was distressed. Her heartbeat was slowing down very fast. I had an emergency C-section, now she’s perfectly healthy and I’m grateful for the route I took.
Recovery from natural is so much easier. I had 2 no epidural naturally and last was a stupid c-section. The upside was she was premature so my hardest days I recovered in the hospital and didn’t have to care for her. By the time I got to hold her my worst recovery days were over.
So wild how some women say they don’t hardly have pain after a c section. I’ve had my back broken, my face shattered on the left side, and I have a huge pain tolerance. And after my c section, I really thought I just might die. It was so hard. I couldn’t even reach over and pick my son up from his bed. I couldn’t move, literally. And when I did it was the worst pain I’ve ever experienced in 25 years. Shoutout to us mommas! Men really have no idea the pain a women goes through to birth a human… to give life. And condolences to this woman for donating her body. So amazing and just beautiful really.
I would love an in-depth lecture on Poly Cystic ovaries. This was severely informative ☺️
OMG!!! Yes please. It wud be awesome to see wtf is going on with PCOS!!! ITS SO DAMN HARD TO LIVE WITH THIS SHIT!!!
Lupa 444 yes!! I agree it fkn sucks!
Yes or Endometriosis. If they haven't already.
I agree
I agree!!!! A video explaining exactly what our ovaries and body goes through dealing with PCOS would be great! I am so curious about what the inside of our body does or how it changes during days when PCOS is really acting up, like when cysts burst. What the cysts look like. Does a woman with PCOS have an unhealthier looking ovary etc.
I had a C section 12 years ago at 38 weeks with my last daughter and afterwards I healed pretty well. My doctor did an excellent job with my incision and stitching, however sometimes I still get sharp pains, pulling sensations, and Itching of my scar. C sections are no joke!!
Mines itch as well uuugh, did your scar flatten and smooth out? Does your skin look normal by now?
Choosing a C-section is my biggest regret 😢 but i was somehow made to do it..
I had a c-section 13 years ago, dr did an amazing job. But I still get those symptoms too 13 years later, weird.
Me too sharp pains and aching sometimes. I think there's more to it we still have to learn about. Why tear tissue for a c section and still perform episiotomys?
@@rachelharding3601 Whatttt??? Don’t tell me that you got an episiotomy along with your C-Section!! Whew I’m glad my doctor didn’t so that to me!! I would probably still be punching her in the face right today lol!!
I love how you're still respecting the bodies by covering their head and genitals while cutting them to pieces I know it seems ironic but I'd want that if my body ends up in this situation
Donated cadavers are given the utmost respect by doctors and students. They realize the magnitude of the gift they've been given. The staff even gives a memorial service when they are done. Usually there is a certificate or document given to the family honoring the decedent, along with the ashes.
That’s not always the case.... I’ve heard stories from family.
@@shayshe1918 Depends on the country, unfortunately. Where I'm from, most students do treat the donated bodies with utmost respect but there's always at least 2 weird perverts per batch who think it's hilarious to mess around with genitals or arrange cadavers into positions :(
@@shayshe1918 That is amazing! I love this because they themselves wanted their body to be used for future science & practice. They didn't have to do that but they wanted to. So they deserve respect & to be honored as if they were still alive.💗

I gave birth to him through a natural labor but with epidural. And I can tell you there is nothing better. Epidural really works. And the recovery was easy and fast.

@@KathleenJ that is why we are so fortunate to have C-section as an option. C-sections shouldn’t be taken or done lightly, it shouldn’t be done because a woman didn’t want to do some hard work.
I had my c-section almost 27 yrs ago! My incision is still numb but healed perfectly. My miracle baby is almost 27 & I thank God for her every single day & I thank God for my dr (Dr. Howard) who performed my c-section to bring her into this world! I learned so much from this video Justin so thank you! Things I never knew about till now.
In 2017 I had an emergency c-section. My uterus ruptured while I was in labor in the hospital. We were trying for a VBAC birth, (vaginal after c-section). This was my second and last child. When the OB surgeon discovered what was going wrong, (I had an epidural, so I didn't feel pain but I couldn't breathe well.) She got me into surgery and our son was born no joke, within 10 minutes. He is a happy, healthy and perfect 4 year old today. I'm very grateful for the experienced surgeon. She had only ever had 2 previous patients have a rupture in her 40 ish year career.
By the way, she said she had to "puzzle piece" my uterus back together. They didn't remove it, because I had already lost too much blood. This year though in January I had a hysterectomy, and I feel so fantastic. The surgeon showed me a photo of my own scarred, weird looking uterus. It was insane.
Anyway womens bodies are incredible.
My sister's last baby her uterus ruptured too! They did emergency cesarian delivery and they say she seized during... She woke to the doctor hold her jaw shut. Possibly went into sudden severe eclampsia. She had not been diagnosed with it during at all. Very terrifying...Her first delivery without any of us sisters or parents there. Praising God she and her daughter survived.
Thatvhappened to my Mum with me. She had two rarities. I came along AFter her Tubal lit. !
Wow! So amazing! As a mother of 13 full-term natural births, with numerous C-section friends, it’s fascinating to see the anatomy in this way! I’m impressed too, Daniel, with the respect with which you handle cadaver and the admiration you hold for both the birth process AND the human body. Thank you!

@@Idkmanihatethis but you can impreganting someone so maybe, use it as a lesson why c-sec doesn't equate to easy delivery. The recovery process of it is a bitch to handle
@@hafizatulsufiahyaacob5186 witnessed it first hand when my mom had my baby brother
Great explanation; Thank you. My spouse had 2 C-sections in the 1970's; the first was an emergency, the 2nd was planned. In each case the cuts were made vertically from just below her naval down into about 3/4 of her pubic hair. Her bladder was 'cut away' & then put back in place once the delivery was done. She was kept in hospital 6 days then sent back home. After the first C-section 'something' (presumably muscle near the area) would 'pull' whenever she moved about causing a sudden lurch of pain & the problem was never resolved. 30 years later she had to have a complete hysterectomy & the tissue from the prior C-sections was so scarred there literally wasn't enough healthy skin tissue to pull back together to allow for the hysterectomy so the surgeon ended up doing a horizontal cut across leaving her with a large 'upside down cross' of scarring which causes her additional pain.
Thankfully, C-sections can now be done horizontally but back in the day, a long vertical cut was the only option. Irrespective, it's major surgery and is not the 'easy way out' as so many seem to think it is. Complete healing takes weeks & in some cases leads to permanent problems with pain later on. Would not recommend it as an 'easy' replacement for vaginal birth. Back then, if a woman had one C-section, any additional pregnancies resulted in automatic repeat C-section thus limiting women to 3 children as the majority of doctors wouldn't even consider attempting vaginal birth after the 1st C-section & heavily frowned upon women having more than 3 C-sections. Great that times have changed but irrespective, from those that I've personally spoken to, most of them who've experienced both prefer vaginal births to C-section.
Thank you so much for this amazing visual explanation. 20+ years as a nurse here, and when my daughter had complications during labor, necessitating an urgent c-section, I couldn't fully comprehend when the OB doc told me, "that her bowel had become trapped/stuck in front of her uterus..." My daughter suffered an agonizing labor, not knowing her pain was basically compromised circulation to her bowel and not just "labor pain". I am so thankful things turned out relatively ok, considering what could have happened. My grandson did have to spend several days in the NICU secondary to profound hypoglycemia but is now a healthy 2.5 year old. Thanks again for this education! :)
The more I watch about childbirth, the less I want to get pregnant.
That's why I never had any kids. It's just to scary 😨
Lol
Same
Having a child is the most beautiful thing that can happen to a human being
You will never know the wonder that you missed. Sad.
My sister's obgyn gave her a c section just because he was going on vacation and wanted to deliver the baby before that. She had a completely healthy and typical pregnancy with literally no medical reason for a c section smh. Please ladies, be careful of who you chose to help guide you through your pregnancy and delivery!
Oh I agree, some people don't realize that neither way of giving birth is easy and they assume the C-Section is better.
I hope she wasn't in so much pain her vacation wasn't a relaxing experience >.<
I was lucky to have birthed both my babies naturally, but I know women that had a C-section done and can still have problems years later. Me? I may still pee a little after a hard sneeze xD I'd take that over pain any day. (TMI, but childbirth is a nasty and disgusting, yet a miraculous and amazing thing! All parts of it need to be known so maybe people know more about what they're getting into... and I'm working on strengthening muscles to fix my Tinkel Bell problem)
I would fight his ass
Insurance companies would not appreciate what he did.
My Dr did this to me :(
He tried to force me into labour and it didn't work so he induced me and by the next morning my son was almost dead.
They rushed me in for an emergency c section.
The doctor said he had to get as many babies out as he could before January 1st 2011 because apparently the government had some payment starting for working mums after that date...
So he practically put my life at risk and my sons for his bonus pay check.
That does not sound legal, the OB is so selfish
I had a C-section 29 years ago at 36 weeks of pregnancy due to Toxemia/Pre-eclampsia. My son was 6 lbs 4 oz and 19.5 in long! They tried to induce me for a day, but because it was four weeks before the due date, he had not "dropped" yet, and it didn't work (zero dilation and only 50% effacement). I used to joke that he wasn't even in the neighborhood!
Thank God for this procedure, or we both would have died. Your video was very interesting. Thank you for making it. I would love to see a real C-section!
This confirms my theory that surgeons are just better trained butchers.
Yes, so which cut you would like to purchase today? I recommend the waist cut since it has less working muscle and has a great marbling
L W 😂😂😂
Have some respect for the trade will ya
@@lwgg omg 😂😂😂
When barbers began making more cutting people than hair they banded together and that became the barber surgeon. When they realized that midwives made more money they started delivering babies but for most and still they are surgeons.
Thank goodness someone just explained what I had to go through twice, so traumatic and he explains it with visuals...After 8 years I finally get closure. Thank you. Seriously. My mental health thanks you indeed.
My anatomy professor told me she hasn’t been able to eat pulled pork since dissecting cadavers in grad school. I can see why.
How about going Vegan...
animals are just like us the same digestive tract, muscles sexual organs, they feel like us only they can't tell us. The part of the muscle that lies beneath the umbilical cord looks like the meat the put in supermarkets-
And here I was wondering I was thinking of meat watching this 🥴
I seen a video of medical students butchering a cadaver and it looked like chicken to me but in a gross way..
I'm really thinking about becoming pescatarian or vegetarian. I don't think I'll see shredded pork or chicken the same again. I wasn't ready
I had a c-section about two months ago. I knew they had to open you up to do the procedure. I didn't know how they'd do it or what it entailed and that is what scared me the most when it came down to helping my baby come into the world safely. Watching this video and seeing how I recovered, I feel blessed to have the body I have. It went through hell to bring my baby girl into the world. Recovery has taken longer than I want. However, seeing my baby girl makes it all worth it. Thanks for this video. It definitely changed my mind on the view of my own c-section.
I'm glad I viewed this AFTER already having had a C-section. Now I understand why I was in so much pain afterwards.
Been there , done that! Once was enough for me, at 40. He is now getting a Phd!
I am delighted for you! 😊
I just had my first child via C sections 11 weeks ago and I was also 40. My husband keeps asking, "when are we going to have another one?" I tend to walk away when he asks.
Congratulations!! I know your very proud. Best wishes for a promising future and great success.
Ive had 2 and it was a blessing........now Im.Mother to a 21 yr old Son.amd a 6 yr old daughter. God is good
40 is old to have a kid
Okay. Shouldn’t have watched this while I’m pregnant. That was a mistake.
Tara Daviie It’s better that you know even if it’s kinda cringe inducing. I had an emergency c-section and it saved my daughter and me. Best of luck on everything!
Tara Daviie you’ll be ok. Stop stressing everything will be fine. Stay off the internet! It will drive you crazy.
Haha haha same 😭
You'll do just fine...then you'll have a beautiful little baby...remember that..
Don't think about it. Don't stress your self out.
If you do get a C-section, your body knows what to do , just take good care of your self. PS . You'll forget all the pain after seeing the face of your beautiful baby 👶🏻
I had two c-sections. I went through labor both times. My first was 27 hours of labor. I did labor with my second also. It was determined that my uterus was tipped. Both of my babies were face up vrs face down. Thank you for sharing this. I always find your videos very educational!
Gross, amazing, I don’t want to see this, I can’t stop watching.
Ps I have had 2 csections and 1 vagjnal birth. The microbiome information was very interesting! Great job
Me tho 🤣
Doctor hangs your guts out yikes
Me too!
😹
I may end up having a c section due to where my baby’s placenta is located at...all depends on my very last ultrasound to see if it has moved at all
:( wish me luck
Good luck halyn! You’ll be an amazing mom :-) 💛
Halyn Boyd do you have an anterior placenta? I’m currently 22 weeks and was told I have one! I just hope it moves because I’m not trying to have a c sec!!
Paris Davis low laying anterior placenta! My wonderful doctor noticed it early on and has been keeping an eye on it! Currently 24 weeks and still hasn’t moved and I’m already showing quite a bit. I only have one more 3D ultrasound to see if it has moved. If not we will plan on a c section as my birth plan!! Let’s pray our placentas change positions so we can have a normal vaginal birth!!❤️
Halyn Boyd I was told my placenta was right in front of the baby at 19 weeks. My doctor ask if I felt my baby kick yet and I said no and she said it’s because of my placenta. Im now feeling my baby kick so I hope it’s because my placenta moved! I have an ultrasound next week so I will find out for sure. Yes I will pray! I really hopes yours moves! Good luck&congrats🙏🏾❤️
Brandon Bennetzen thank you!!
Ladies, you have my respect for having put up with pregnancy. Y’all are amazing.
Cesarean section mom 25 years ago!! Neat to watch! My son is now married, college graduate and looking to purchase their first home! It was 18 hours of hard labor followed by an emergency cesarean d/t his heart rate dropping and me not dilating. Afterwards he was in the NICU with neonatal sepsis. Scariest part ever!! My doctor and the nurses were so amazing though and were so concerned about me it kept my emotions from getting too overwhelming. I still have pain, tenderness, itching and numbness in the incision. C -sections are seriously no joke! 8 weeks later I had to have a cholecystectomy (gall bladder removal). 2 major abdominal surgeries in 8 weeks! Talk about rough recovery! But, I’d do it again in a heartbeat to have my son!! All you fellow c-section moms are rockstars!!
This actually made me feel a lot more relaxed about C-sections. I always thought they only made one cut, through the muscles and everything and that's what scared me about the procedure. This shows that understanding really is an empowering thing!
don't get too relaxed about c section.. because if the doctor does'nt stitch up properly layer by layer after the operation, it's gonna be a messed up situation afterwards. And i'm not even making things up
a cut in the linea alba is still a cut on connective tissue that affects recovery of the muscle all the same, c sections are still a surgical procedure and should not be taken lightly. In addition as another has mentioned severe complications can occur, 9.5% of anual deaths in US happen due to medical malpractice, this is not counting close calls or life changing outcomes.
Can’t wait to see this. I had 2 C-sections. My son is now 29. Daughter 25. Always wondered what exactly they did to me. Here I go! .......
This was really interesting. I had an emergency c-section. From when the decision was made to when the baby was born, it all took about 10 minutes. I know there are some places that coat the baby with vaginal fluid during the procedure just to make sure the baby gets the proper bacteria. Doubt they did that with mine. My son has had issues with his digestive system, so we shall see what comes of that.
In my case it was to save us both, we were both basically dead when it was all over. Even though he was 41 weeks, he spent 14 days in NICU and I had 4 bags of blood transfused. Just 60 years ago neither of us would have survived. I'm grateful that I live in a country with modern medicine.
Yes! I am glad as well. We all are❤
I was born from a C-section and I had some digestive issues that brought me to the doctor when still being a baby. I don't even eat many things today. It'd be interesting to know if it's caused by the way I was born.
That transfer vaginal liquid procedure is called “vaginal seeding”. There’s an NIH approved clinical trial called ACTIVATE in regards to vaginal seeding if delivering at Mount Sinai In NYC. Moms go through a screening phase that they need to pass to make sure nothing bad transfers to the baby.
God bless you and your child.
