When would meconium be present?
Meconium is found in a baby's intestines during pregnancy. It is a thick green tar like substance. Usually the meconium is released after the baby's birth.

If a baby swallows meconium, it can lead to a condition known as meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS), where the meconium enters the airways and lungs during or after birth.

While many babies may experience mild symptoms, some may require medical intervention, such as oxygen support or suctioning to clear the airways. Prompt medical attention is essential to manage any complications that may arise.

However, this is not specifically related to being born via C-section.
