Those of you mummies who have had c sections (elective or other) do you class it as 'giving birth'?

I'm sort of struggling with it because one of my friends piped up and told me I didn't give birth because she didn't come from my vjayjay! *bullcrap!* I was so angry with this...

I got her here safely. (with the doctors help)... I feel like I have given birth. I went through pregnancy, she just came out the sunroof instead.

Finally not feeling guilty like I used to about birthing miss A too early. And then a 'friend' goes and says this! Way to go lol
