It usually leaves a small scar that is just below the bikini line. Sometimes caesareans are planned in advance. Sometimes they happen as an emergency. The midwife and hospital doctor (obstetrician) will discuss this with you if it becomes necessary to get your consent.		preparing for my baby Continuing with your pregnancy Keeping Healthy Physical activity Healthy Eating Alcohol Smoking Drugs STIs & Pregnancy Care for you when you are pregnant Antenatal care Parent education classes Birth plan Where to have your baby Birth Partners Pain relief Natural Birth Caesarean Section Adoption Motherhood and Fatherhood Young People’s Project Counselling
