International audience Background: The World Health Organization recommends a caesarean section rate of 10 to 15% in each country (France: 21%). C-section may generate dissatisfaction with childbirth (Chalmers et al., 2010): 76% of women consider it as a traumatic event (Ryding, Wijma, & Wijma, 1997). Moreover, as the baby's health is considered a priority in this situation, mothers have fewer opportunities to express their needs and emotions (Lipson, 1982).
