Oh maybe for about 5 minutes? and then I got over it. My DS was c-section and this one will be too. There are many things I would have regretted in life had I not done them - the biggest being a parent, but giving birth vaginally is not one of them. Why? Because it is a purely medical thing that we often don't have control over. I didn't have control over how I would give birth to DS, so it is not something I worry about. And he is here safe and THAT is what is important.

I trust my OB completely and therefore have no doubt over having a c-section this time. Sure, it would be easier if I had a vaginal in terms of recovery and dealing with a toddler at the same time but that is the way the cards have fallen and I am fine with that.

I find it offensive that that woman or anyone else would be trying to project her views on you like that. It shows her insecurities, not yours. Make peace with your decisions and know that being a good parent is the key - not achieving a particular birth just because people tell you you should.
