Jelly K., 22

Jelly Khatun is a 22-year-old honest and educated pregnant woman who enjoys reading and dreams of building a home for her family while hoping for a safe delivery and healthy baby. She lives with her husband and three other family members in fragile housing, while her husband is the sole earning member and works as a day laborer, earning only approximately USD 49 per month, making it difficult to meet their basic needs and afford necessary medical care. The family learned about Helpster Charity through a relative and sought support because their financial hardship prevents them from paying for the required treatment. At 31 weeks and 4 days of pregnancy, Jelly was diagnosed with breech presentation after experiencing lower abdominal pain, discomfort, fatigue, and abdominal tightening. Without timely medical monitoring and appropriate management, breech presentation may increase the risk of obstructed labor, fetal distress, birth injury, or other serious complications that could threaten both mother and baby.

The recommended treatment for Jelly Khatun is a Lower Segment Cesarean Section (LSCS) under Spinal Anesthesia Block (SAB), as it is the safest method of delivery for a breech pregnancy. With timely surgery and appropriate postoperative care, both the mother and the baby are expected to recover well. However, delaying treatment may lead to serious complications, including obstructed labor, umbilical cord prolapse or compression, fetal distress, birth injuries, severe oxygen deprivation, and even fetal death. The mother may also be at risk of excessive bleeding, severe infection, or other life-threatening obstetric complications.
