C-Section is normally done if you have any complication in your pregnant or if you are not a first-time mother and you had a C-Section during your first pregnancy. But normally these complications can be detected once you go to a  baby scan clinic and you would know beforehand whether you are going to have a natural birth or C-Section. Before the operation is performed the mother is given anesthesia in her spine using injection. Due to this injection, the area surrounding the spine begins to hurt after the anesthesia wears off. All the muscles, ligaments, and nerves in the back start to hurt. This pain sometimes reduces while lying down.
