Caesarean section09 August 2005
Having a baby after a Caesarean birth

Whilst rates of caesarean are still rising in Great Britain, a new report from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists has found that following delivery by c-section, fewer women go on to have another pregnancy compared to those who give birth by vaginal delivery.

Jenni speaks to Dr Siladitya Bhattacharya, one of the authors of the report and to Sheila Kitzinger, writer of The Politics of Birth, about the implications of these findings.
