Chapter 15 Dystocia?

• "Dystocia?" Lucian had heard this term before, he looked at the doctor without understanding. "What should be done?"
• "This type of dystocia occurs in few cases, but it can compromise the life of the baby as well as the mother, presenting a greater risk for her. The baby is coming shoulder first and a natural birth would be very difficult, it would mean tearing and that would be serious for the mother. The baby could also suffer damage. We could perform a cesarean section, but she has lost a lot of blood so it is not advisable to do that type of surgery now. Additionally, the baby is already in the birth canal and we are running out of time, there could be death due to perinatal asphyxia."
• "What?" Lucian panicked, looking at Catherine whose face was pale as paper, she couldn't even speak from the pain. Anxiously, he made a decision for her. "If there is any risk to her, then save her."
