1. Repeat C Section
If you have a baby birth via c section before this delivery. There are more chances of having a cesarean birth this time. Still, you can contact your doctor and know your chances to have normal delivery this time. This is one of the top reasons for a c section.
2. Slip of the Umbilical Cord
When the umbilical cord slips through the cervix, it starts creating complications. When this happens, the baby inside the womb doesn’t get a proper blood supply and this can cause the doctor to plan for the cesarean section in an emergency.
3. Reasons for C Section – Babies With Birth Defects
Babies with birth defects such as:
- Heart defects, such as missing or misshaped valves
- Neural tube defects
- congenital heart diseases
increases the chances of having c section delivery as it reduces the risk of delivery complications.
4. Inadequate Oxygen
If the baby in the womb fails to receive sufficient oxygen supply and can create fetal distress. It increases the chances of having an emergency c section.
5. Fetus Position
Advised position for successful vaginal birth is head down and legs up. Other positions such as:
- Breech position- Where bottom leads first
- Transverse Position- Side to side position
increases the chances of having caesarian delivery.
6. Reasons for C Section – Big Babies
Babies who are large in size pass through the canal. Or those who are on the heavier side. These conditions increase the chances of having c section birth to avoid complications and post-delivery recovery is smooth.
7. Having More Than One Baby
Pregnancy with twins increases the chances of having a c section. When the expectant mother is carrying more than one baby :
- Twin babies
- Triplets
- Quadlets’
or even more. It creates pressure on the mother and the pain is more. In these cases sometimes the doctor can plan for c section delivery.

Existing medical conditions of the expectant mother such as:
- High blood pressure
- High sugar levels
