The baby does not feel any pain

Dr Asha told that in a cesarean delivery, the baby is gently taken out by cutting the stomach. There is no pressure on the baby and he/she comes out very comfortably. Whereas in a normal delivery, the baby stays in the birth canal for a long time, due to which there is a risk of him/her getting less oxygen.

The equipment is used

Sometimes in normal delivery, some equipment is used to pull the baby out such as vacuum or forceps. This puts the baby at risk of trauma. On the other hand, no equipment is used on the baby in cesarean delivery. This reduces the risk of any kind of trauma to the baby.

Injury to other organs

The doctor said that during normal delivery, many times the rectum or urinary tract gets injured when the baby comes out. Due to this, women have difficulty in controlling urine after delivery, the muscles of the vagina get torn or become loose. Due to this, there may be problems in sex and inability to control urine in the future. All these problems do not occur in cesarean delivery.
