Chapter 20 Dystocia?

• "Dystocia?" Lucian had heard the term before, but he looked at the doctor, not fully comprehending.
• "What should we do?"
• "This kind of dystocia is rare, but it can be life-threatening for both the baby and the mother," the doctor explained urgently. "The baby is presenting shoulder-first, and a natural birth would be extremely difficult. It could cause severe tearing for the mother and potential injury to the baby. A cesarean section is an option, but Catherine has lost a lot of blood, making surgery risky. Moreover, the baby is already in the birth canal, and time is running out. There's a risk of perinatal asphyxia, which could lead to death."
