Honoring Cesarean Awareness Month 2025 | Minneapolis, Minnesota

Cesarean birth can hold a large range of emotions and meaning to families.

For some, their cesarean birth reminds them of their strength and sacrifice to birth their baby safely.

For others, their cesarean birth is a source of trauma, loss of autonomy or loss of control.

Feelings of empowerment, grief, joy, fear, and everything in between.

We share these images from some of our beloved Gather Birth cesarean families and their unique birth stories.

Your birth matters no matter how it unfolds or what interventions it may require.
