caesarean birth, patient style........

a women who was unable to get to hospital gave birth to a baby boy herself, faced with being unable to have a natural birth in a hospital because of distance limitations, and having lost a baby previously because of implications, the women took it upon herself to initiate a caesarean on herself :erm:

Quote:

Dr R Valle, of the Dr Manuel Velasco Suarez Hospital in San Pablo, Mexico, said: "She took three small glasses of hard liquor and, using a kitchen knife, sliced her abdomen in three attempts and delivered a male infant that breathed immediately and cried."

before the women who gave brith passed out, she told her other child to call for the local nurse...........

ouch. guess it shows how people can just overcome the pain threshold when they are faced with a situation that leaves them no choice.

I read about that in the paper a couple of days ago.

Must have taken a lot of bravery & nerve to do that!

V lucky they both survived too.

hehehehehe dad always says that my labour was painful.....sure he had dent marks in his hands too...and such it should be the pain a women has to go through...... i just wish my friends/relatives would stop telling me how painful it is :erm:

as for this story...part of my says my life, that women must have been in seriously pain, the other part says she should have called a midwife before...imagine if she had done serious damage to herself or the baby :Yikes:
