What happens when anesthesia doesn’t work during a C-section? Jen and Bethany dive into The Retrievals podcast’s second season, which highlights the terrifying experience of a woman feeling pain during her C-section.

As two moms and a board-certified OB anesthesiologist, they unpack what went wrong, what’s missing from the story, and how you can advocate for yourself to avoid a similar situation.

Jen shares her professional insights on:
✅ Why C-section anesthesia sometimes fails (and how rare this really is)
✅ What anesthesiologists can and should do if a patient feels pain during surgery
✅ Why testing the block properly is critical before starting a C-section
✅ How OB anesthesiologists are actively improving anesthesia safety and patient experience
✅ Tips for communicating with your anesthesia team if you’re nervous about pain during surgery
