This is a baby born to a mother who was brought to Umri Christian hospital unbooked. Her water bag broke 24 hours ago, she was getting mild pain and her bp readings were very high (160/100 mm Hg). She was in obstructed labour ( baby was stuck in the birth passage) and baby’s heartbeat was very low ( 90-100 beats per minute). Also baby’s head was posterior in the birth passage (occipitoposterior). With so many complications and high risk factors our gynaecologist made a swift decision to do an Emergency Caesarean section. Caesarean was done and thankfully baby cried at birth 😊. There were complications during the surgery also which can happen in obstructed labour but they were managed by our doctor single handedly. Now both mother and baby are doing well.
