I had an emergency caesarean, and yes, I did feel judged by some people.....I had one person say that I hadn't actually "given birth" which I found so highly offensive it wasn't funny!!

Unfortunately it does seem to be the way that everyone will want to comment on your decisions throughout your PG and beyond, well into parenthood! It can be really hard, particularly when it's a time in your life when you are feeling very sensitive as you are entering unknown territory!
