Q1: A cesarean, also known as a c-section, is a surgical procedure used to help to deliver a baby through incisions in the abdomen and uterus. Although c-sections are considered safe, they are only recommended in specific conditions, such as if the baby is under stress, if the baby is too large for the mother to delivery him/her through a vaginal delivery, or if the baby is not head down at the time of birth.

Q2: Natural or vaginal delivery is divided into four stages of labor. During the first stage of labor that lasts at least 8 up to 12 hours generally, the cervix dilates from 4 to 10 centimeters, and when the dilation reaches the 10 centimeters, the active labor begins; therefore it is important to go to the hospital during this stage. The cervix expands due to contractions appearing that helps to open your cervix, therefore it is incorrect to say that contractions are infrequent at this stage.
