Over One Quarter Of Canadian Births Are Now By Cesarean Section - Society Of Obstetricians And Gynaecologists Of Canada

Kudos, fatsos.

And you can bet that in the USA, the rates are rising, too, adding costs and risks.
"More babies are born by C-section (Cesarean section) today than ever before, says the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada. The Society adds that the numbers continue to rise.

Apart from placing mothers at raised risks during childbirth and subsequent pregnancies, these figures are placing an excessive burden on the nation's healthcare system, the Society claims."
Which also places the to-be-born and newly born at risk

Keep children safe, let your voice be heard.
