Just another question re my letter from the doctor; He states that because I had laboured for 12 hours and my baby's head had not engaged my uterus was tireder than usual and if I had not had the c/s my uterus could have ruptured. I assume he is using this as a reason for having the c/s and then the following complications, but again I feel this is a cop-out, and my question is, is your uterus really that tired after 12 hours, when many women labour alot longer?
