Caesarean section
A caesarean section is an operative birth that is often medically necessary and protects mother and child. At the Kyborg Institute we classify the theme sensitively and on a soul-related level – without any attribution of blame.
A birth is a special transition
We understand every birth – whether spontaneous or by caesarean section – as a significant transition into life. A caesarean section is no “wrong” start: it is often medically necessary and saves lives, and children who come into the world this way are not “less properly” born. No one – neither mother nor child – bears “blame”.
Sensing it afterwards – a possibility, not a necessity
Some parents want to sense the experience of birth afterwards in soul-related terms. That can be personally enriching, but it is no necessity. With questions or worries, midwife, gynaecologist and paediatrician are the right people to turn to.
What does that mean in practice?
- Value your own path of birth, without pressure and without blame.
- If you like, sense the experience of birth afterwards in soul-related terms.
