Lakeville woman has first maternal-assisted c-section at St. Paul’s Mother Baby Center

[Fox 9 News, May 17, 2022] When it comes to bringing new life into the world, cesarean sections are nothing new. 

But as Lakeville mom Elizabeth Andreyevskiy was preparing to give birth to her fourth child, she knew she wanted to do something different. 

Maternal assisted c-sections give some women the option of having a hands-on role in the birth of their child. 

The procedure is relatively rare. In fact, some major hospitals in the Twin Cities don’t offer it as an option. 

Elizabeth approached her OBGYN at the The Mother Baby Center in Saint Paul, which is a partnership between Allina Health and Children’s Minnesota.
