Pregnancy Part 5: The Truth About C-Sections: My C-Section Story | Winnie Wong
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- In this two-part video, I share my personal experience of having a c-section in order to help dispel any fears or misconceptions that viewers may have about the procedure. I understand that not everyone has the privilege of choosing whether or not to have a c-section, but for those who do, I hope that this video can be a source of empowerment for expectant mothers who may feel hesitant or guilty about not having a "natural" birth.
I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Manahan and his medical team for their professionalism and expertise throughout the process. I have a great deal of respect for doctors and the hard work they put into mastering their field of medicine.
Prior to filming this video, I obtained written consent from Dr. Manahan and Makati Medical

about your fear of giving birth, your c-section decision and the baby being coiled: a mom truly knows best.
It's probably also divine intervention.
Can’t believe you gave birth because in one of your old videos you mentioned you are considering surrogacy because of your fear of the labor pains. I am proud of you and all women and mothers. Congrats, Winnie!
Dr M. Manahan was one of our Oby gyne resident doctors when i was in MMC as a staff nurse and his dad at that time was a Consultant ( RIP ). Dr De Jesus was a visiting Anaesthesiologist during my time in MMC and he is so pogi, hehe. Im presently working in UK now. Congratulations! By the way, one of the side effects of Morphine is itchiness 😊
Congratulations guys! It's your body and it's your right to choose as a patient, don't let people bother you since as you said you know your limits, every body is different but we're so happy for you and it's worth the wait :)
I understand and respect others but for me, its your body so its your decision. You know your body more than anyone else. So great job, Winnie! Congratulations to both you and Patrick. Welcome to the outside world, baby girl Soriano!
Thank you so much for sharing your pregnancy journey Winnie! I'm 6 months pregnant and also have fear of giving birth. This video helped calm some of my nerves. ♥️ Congratulations!!!
You can do it!!
CS mama here! I was lucky my recovery was smooth and also I had a good OB. Winnie you don't have to explain really. I hope you recover vv soon. Now on to the highs and lows of motherhood!
First time I heard someone choose Csection for the first baby. Congratulations!! My 3 kiddos are all cs.. first was an emergency cs.. second was elective.. 3rd was emergency cs… and when I had my epi I was lying sideways…
Every csection is different! All my 3 were so so different!
Congratulations winnie and pat! Happy parenting ❤❤
Glad to see how honest and transparent you are with your birthing experience as it brings awareness to women who are hesitant to give birth. Personally, i dont imagine myself going through this whole motherhood thing because i dont have the urge to become one and i feel like thats ok. It’s ok to have choices that go against the grain just like your choice of having a c-section.
Congrats brave momma!
I had my C section too, in the height of the pandemic (Nov 2022). Gave birth to a 36 week old baby boy. But after 22 hrs, I wanted to see him, so I stood up 😂. After 4 days in the hospital, we all went home, and I am cooking our meals after 😂.
Congratulations Winnie!!! Great job! We, moms, will really do everything for our babies. I remember I had a panic attack before my emergency c-section. I thank God that he calmed me down before the operation. Now my baby is turning 8 mos old. 💗💗💗
CONGRATS WINNIE!!!!! I had a c-section after 2 days of labor because my body wasn't progressing & then my son's heart rate started to dip with the contractions when they were deciding to break my water to try & speed things up. It wasn't an emergency c-section, but a necessary one. I was totally unprepared to give birth that way, but the nurses & lactation consultant were wonderful & kept telling me I did well. One item that helped me SO much was the Boppy pillow. I already had one but after a c-section, your abdomen is so tender that even holding the baby can be painful. This helped me hold him close without pressure on my belly.
Congratulations you two! Brings back memories of my 2 C-sections - 20 and 18 yrs ago.
It's your body Winnie you don't need anyone's approval to do what makes you feel safe😉 what's important is you prioritize your own and your baby's welfare. Seeing this video traveled me back in time during my c-section and it's not a great experience for me. Having to deal with depression after giving birth and so on. But I'm so happy and content to have my 15 yr old son and an 11 year old daughter, I'm 36 by the way. Always eagerly waiting for your next vlog!🙏❤
I'm a first time mom and have also decided on a planned c-section because of personal and medical reasons. Congrats on your baby girl. Cant wait for mine. 💕
Congrats in advance!
Congratulations Winnie! Proud of you! Can't wait for the next updates, I know taking care of a newborn is a whole other experience.
C section was the best decision for me. Had it with my son. Epidural is not as painful as what my mom told me before. I didn't even feel it at all. People usually think (mostly boomers and some men) that c section is the "easy way out" but it's not. Thank you for this video. More csection mommies will feel better. ♥️♥️♥️
I also gave birth at MMC and my child also have cord coil. His cord is wrapped twice on his neck and I'm so happy that we were able to take him out safely. Good job on deciding for C section. It's dangerous to push out a baby with coils. The nurses, residents, and everyone else there were so nice and made giving birth less terrorizing. My epidural wasn't traumatizing all because of their team ♥
Currently 7months pregnant thank you for posting this video ❤🥺🥺🥺
Congrats on the birth of your baby and on overcoming your fear, Winnie! 🫶🏼
Winnie in her momma era, I'm excited for you at Pat. Congrats!
Congratulations!! 🎉🎉
Welcome baby to the world 😍😀
So great! You're awake during the csection! 😮😮
Me, when i gave birth, csection also. When I lay down, after few minutes i was unconscious. As in, i dont know what happened. Until i heard, your baby came out. After i opened my eyes i felt so low that i still cant move my feet and my enery level is super low.
After that, i was out from the delivery room waiting for my baby. The first time i saw and held her was the BEST FEELING EVER!!! Teary eyed and super happy!!! 😍😍😍 WORTH IT!!! 😍😍😍
SHOUT OUT TO ALL SUPERMOMS OUT THERE!!! WE'RE THE BEST!!! ❤❤❤ LABAN LANG!!!
Congrats Winnie and Pat. Heal well and thanks for showing baby girl Soriano right away!

Thank you for sharing this Winnie! This video brings back the memories of my C/S journey. I had three Csections before and that was one of the best decision i ever made for myself and for my kids❤
I am so happy for you! Great job, Mama Winnie! ❤️
We had the same experience ms.winnie❤ I also had c-section because my daughter had single cord coil, i also have endometriosis. Congratulations ms.winnie!❤️❤
Congrats Winnie and Pat
Ive been waiting for this video again congrats 🎉
Thank you for sharing Winnie . You’re a mommy now Yayy ☺️🤍✨ Congratulations to you and Pat. 🤍 Looking forward for more of your motherhood contents ✨ But no pressure. It’s more important for you to rest whenever you can. Babies are handful.
CONGRATULATIONS, ate Winnie!! 💖💖💖
Just like you, I also had scheduled CS here in the US and i also got a lot of :"WHY NOT NORMAL DELIVERY?" "THATS NOT A GOOD DECISION" Pero CS talaga da best way to give birth and it was also advised by a good friend also based on her nice experience.
Congrats! C section mom here as well..had my baby during pandemic so i chose having c section..just so i wont be stressed..😊
Congratulations Winnie & Pat :) Super happy for you guys
First of all, CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🎉🎉🎉
When it comes to giving birth, I think the woman has the right to choose whatever feels comfortable for her, as long as it is okay-ed by her doctors. And it's so sad that, in this day and age when we're all supposed to be tolerant and open-minded, when a mother gives birth naturally or at home, that makes her a better mother than the one who chose an epidural or the one who went through CS. Like it's a competition. Don't mind the naysayers. It's your life, it's your family, it's your baby. 😊
Congratulations Winnie and Pat!!!! 🥰❤
I also have fear of giving birth because my pain tolerance is low. But I am more afraid of CS coz I know I will be cut open and the thought is even more scary. I had a normal delivery and thankful it was only short labor. So Kudos to you for doing CS!!! Congratulations and welcome to the hood! 💖
Thank u win for sharing your journey because I too have the same fear as u! I also watch other pregnancy video hoping to help me overcome my fear but u, explaining and describing the feeling so well reassured me a lot!
Hi Winnie, been waiting for this birth vlog. Me and my husband also requested for a C-section with the same fear as you discussed. This made us feel that we have made the right decision.
Looking forward to more birth vlog experiences as I am scheduled on May 28 of this year.
Thank you and God bless. 😊
Good Luck! ❤

Congratulations! 🎉🎉
I have experienced both natural birth and c-section with my 2 kids. Entirely different experience but both so humbling! Recovery after NSD is of course easier, but my experience wrecovering from cs isn't so bad either i was up and about like bornal in 2 weeks it helps to have a supportive OB for sure!
