It's c section day! Jesse Bennett (July 10, 1769 – July 13, 1842) was the first American physician to perform a successful Caesarean section, which he performed on his own wife at the birth of their only child on January 14, 1794.
This may not be exactly how Dr Bennett performed his wife's surgery in 1794 but this is a good basic video at how they are performed now. Cartoon so no actual blood!

Post us your c section pics!

This is part of our Mother Baby crew! The charge nurse drove around and gathered her co workers so they could get to work!
Other nurses got there and stayed ALL weekend. We have an amazing team!

Nurses get the job done! Whether it's coming together to pick up and drop off co-workers in their off-road Jeeps (we're looking at you Jamie Brummell) to others carpooling and literally WALKING to work, our nurses made it clear they were ready to take on the challenge during Snowmageddon!
