What If I Have a C-Section?

Rita Rubin, the award-winning medical reporter for USA Today, has penned a must-read book for pregnant women. Although approximately one in four babies is born via Cesarean delivery now, there have been few books to help expectant moms understand what’s become one of the most commonly performed operations in the nation.

What makes this book so valuable is that it’s written in an unbiased, thorough manner using humor and everyday language. This book explains the mysteries of C-sections and their after-effects while dispelling the myths surrounding the procedure. In addition to the latest medical research, the book is full of common-sense tidbits of helpful information on pregnancy, birth and afterwards. Numerous women shared their real-life experiences with Rubin, discussing such topics as recovery time, and traveling and exercising post-delivery. This will make an excellent shower gift, especially for nervous first-time mothers.
