I am going to say a very unscientific thing:

If it was my wife, I would convince her to have a caesarean at laparotomy. Evidence or no evidence, I don't want my baby anywhere near severe inflammation and intraabdominal pus. It just feels better. If she woke up after the laparotomy and says: but is it not dangerous for the baby to be in there? I can see how she'd look at me if I go: but darling, there is no evidence....



Exactly my point-- tell the couple the options--- benefits and risks.. and allow them to make the decision.
