Various kinds of deliveries

There are three main kinds of birth deliveries: vaginal delivery, caesarean delivery, and assisted vaginal delivery.

Vaginal Delivery

Vaginal delivery is when the baby is born through the vagina. This is the most common type of delivery and is usually the safest for both the mother and the baby. The doctor will help  to deliver the baby by using specialised instruments and will also use medication to help ease the pain.

Cesarean Delivery

A caesarean delivery, also known as a C-section, is when the baby is delivered through an incision in the mother’s abdomen. This type of delivery is usually recommended when there are complications with the pregnancy or if the baby is in a breech position.

Assisted Vaginal Delivery

An assisted vaginal delivery is when the doctor uses instruments to help deliver the baby vaginally. This type of delivery is usually recommended when there are complications with the pregnancy or if the baby is in a breech position.

St. Philomena’s Hospital is one of the best places for you to have your baby, regardless of which type of delivery you choose. We have a team of experienced doctors who can handle any kind of delivery, complication, or situation that may arise.

High-Risk pregnancies

A high-risk pregnancy is one in which the mother or baby is at risk for health problems. Some of the factors that can make a pregnancy high-risk include:

  • Advanced maternal age
  • High blood pressure

The best place for your newborn

After the baby is born, and if it shows any signs of sickness or anything that needs to be addressed, it will be taken to the newborn intensive care unit (NICU). The NICU is a specialised unit that provides care for premature and sick babies. The staff in the NICU are specially trained to provide the best possible care for your baby.

During any delivery, paediatrics are present  in the room to check on the condition of both the mother and the baby. If there are any concerns, they will be immediately addressed. After delivery, you and your baby will be taken to a special postnatal ward where you will be closely monitored.
