C-Sections, Inductions, and Birth Interventions in Canada

Birth has a vocabulary problem. You can be deep in labour, half-floating outside time, and suddenly someone says “we may need to augment,” or “baby isn’t tolerating labour,” or the big one — “we recommend a C-section.” This guide is for learning those words before you’re in the room. Not because interventions are bad, or good — because they’re tools, and tools make more sense when you know what they’re for.
