daniela, there are support groups for healing after a caesarean and I think lots of info about it on the birthrites website, perhaps you can check it out? It is very frustrating that it's near impossible to birth breech these days, there are actually some conditions that are stated on the RCOGNZ website in a statement that says breech birth is okay, but the conditions include frank breech, monitoring etc... however I have heard of footling breech being born at home both planned and surprise early/quick births...
Yes, you did have a healthy baby but in the de-brief process it is important that your feelings are acknowledged and considered, so I hope in time you are able to heal your caesarean birth. My birth teacher has even counselled women who planned caesareans but felt ripped off when they went into labour spontaneously before the planned date and didn't get the labour that they wanted - so we all have different experiences and wants from birth and we all need support and healing - birth is a rite of passage and no matter which way our birth goes, we have the right to talk about it and express our sadness and sense of loss. All the best hon.
