Many babies are born without complications during a C-section; however, there are risks that should be considered. These include: An injury during surgery. This does not happen often, but it is possible that the baby could be injured by the surgical instruments as the doctor cuts through the uterus. Ask your doctor if this is likely to be a significant risk for your baby. Minor cuts occur in about 2% of C-sections. Transient tachypnea. This occurs when the baby's breathing rate is too fast for the first several days of life. It is more likely after a C-section. If your baby may be having trouble breathing, call emergency responders immediately. Respiratory distress. Babies born by C-section before 39 weeks old are more likely to have lungs that are not yet fully mature. This puts them at a higher risk for breathing problems. Women who undergo a C-section have a longer recovery after birth than women who give birth vaginally. You are also at a higher risk of complications, including: Excessive bleeding. Women who undergo C-sections often lose more blood than women undergoing vaginal deliveries. An injury during the surgery. Occasionally the bladder or another nearby organ may be nicked when the doctor cuts through the abdominal wall. If this occurs the doctor may need to do additional surgery to repair the injury. If you have had prior C-sections, ask your doctor about these risks. They increase as the number of C-sections you've had increase. A bad reaction to the anesthesia. Tell your doctor if you have previously had any problems with anesthesia. In addition, if you experience bad headaches when you sit up or stand after the delivery, tell your doctor. This may be a reaction to the anesthesia. Blood clots. You are at a higher risk for blood clots in your legs or pelvic organs after a C-section than after a vaginal birth. Ask your doctor what they recommend for preventing this. Your doctor may also recommend that you walk as soon as possible after the birth to help prevent clotting. An infection. The most common areas for infections are the incision or in the uterus. Monitor your incision for signs of infection such as swelling, redness, increasing pain, and discharge coming from the wound. Go to the emergency room if you have signs of a uterine infection, such as a fever, pain in your uterus, or a bad smelling discharge coming from your vagina. Some people request a C-section because they want to be able to choose a date that is convenient. This is not recommended, both for your health and for the health of your baby. In addition, if you plan to have more children, you would have a higher risk of complications during future pregnancies. This may include: Problems with the placenta. Risk of the scar rupturing during a future vaginal birth.

Summary: Ask your doctor whether a C-section will be risky for your baby. Evaluate the risks for you. Don't get a C-section for convenience.

Before a demand draft can be created and deposited, the proper information will need to be acquired. This information will be used to fill out the demand draft itself and will be examined by the bank when it is deposited. See the following overview of the information that will be required: If selling an item or service you will need to provide accurate details to your client about that item or service. You will need to obtain the account and routing numbers of the account belonging to the person paying. Consent by the person whose account will be debited to the transferral of funds by demand draft, written or verbal, must be obtained. Verbal consent should be recorded, while written consent might take the form of a faxed document with a signature and date. If you are working remotely with a client to sell them a service or good, it is a good idea to provide the proper information about either, as this can limit liability or promote customer relations. In addition, the financial institution accepting a demand draft might have consumer protection requirements before agreeing to transfer. Inform your client upfront about your sale by meeting the following criteria: The exact price and amount of items or services being sold. Additional information about the item or service regarding extra fees, deposits, certifications, limitations, etc. Any refund policy or no-refund policy. If any prizes for purchase are being offered, the exact details must be disclosed. These details include the chances of winning, costs of winning, or methods of entry with or without payment. Any payment plan that is similar to a "free-trial offer," which will require the buyer to take action to avoid future payments. You will need to acquire the necessary pieces of information to successfully deposit the demand draft in your own bank account. Since a demand draft doesn't require a signature, providing accurate information is critical. You will need to obtain both the account number and routing number of the bank account being used to make the payment or payments. Routing and account numbers are found at the bottom of a check. The routing number appears first, at left, and consists of nine digits. The account number appears after the routing number, just to the right of it. Although a demand draft doesn't require a signature, it does require some form of consent on the part of the person having money withdrawn from their account. Either written or spoken consent will suffice. Verbal consent is acceptable, however, you will need to have a recording of the consent. You may wish to record the entire conversation. If making a recording of verbal consent, make sure to include the date of the agreement, the amount being agreed upon, the name of the client, the number of payments, a telephone number where the client can call, and the date of authorization. Obtaining written consent can be the safest option. However, it may take more time as you wait for the written form of consent to arrive. Have the client write the date he agreed, the amount he agreed to pay, his name, number of payments, telephone number where the client can call, and the date of authorization. Written consent may be obtained in the form of a fax signed by both parties or a voided check sent by the client.
Summary: Gather the necessary information. Give legally required information if selling a service or good. Obtain information regarding your client's bank account. Obtain consent.
