caesarean

A woman who went into hospital for a planned Caesarean section and ended up in a coma for four days has said she remains traumatised by her experience.

Last week, she said, doctors had to conduct an emergency Caesarean on a nine-month pregnant woman whose head had been blown off.

Earlier this year, planned Caesarean sections took place for the first time in almost seven years at what is the largest hospital in Moray.

Her twins were delivered by Caesarean section at 26 weeks in a high-risk operation.

Rachel Williams, from Warwick, says she was thinking about the scheme before the birth of her twins in 2022, when doctors told her she would need a Caesarean four weeks early.
