Abstract
In the article, the authors cite modern data on the frequency of Caesarean section in obstetric practice, report the peculiarities of adaptation of children born by Caesarean section surgery, which is characterized by a high frequency of borderline conditions, pathological loss of body weight, functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, higher morbidity in the subsequent period. In addition, the authors note that mothers of these children are more likely to have hypogalactia, which is largely responsible for impaired adaptation in infants and their transfer to artificial feeding. Referring to the published works, the authors offer various options to improve the process of adaptation in this contingent of children.
