PB, there is the point
as long as baby and mum are not at risk
by doing unneccesary c sections you can very well be putting your child at risk. I'm not saying that every time a woman has a c section something negative is going to happen, just the same as every time a woman births vaginally it isn't going to go perfectly. But the truth of it all is that there are far fewer complications with "natural" births, meaning no interferance, drugs etc, than there are with c section births.

Of course if there are medical conditions that really do mean it's safer for mum or bub, and I'm not talking about something an OB might suggest off handidly, but true physicological reasons then no one would truelly expect you to choose otherwise.

I noticed in that article too that it never did say just what the complications were.
