I don't feel as though I need to explain myself everytime someone asks how I'm going to give birth. I've done my research, asked ob questions. This is the best for us and our baby.

If you don't like it then tough. It's our decision


This is exactly right.

This is your body, your man, your baby, and you are making the best decisions for your family.

I'm in the same situation, for different reasons. I have to have a c-section this time too, probably at 38 weeks.

It will be called elective. That's not how I see it.

I might have people judging me. They can get stuffed.

I find it upsetting. I hope that I will soon be as calm and straightforward as you seem to be about it.

I admire you, and hope that you will be plesantly surprised by how few people speak out of turn about your birthing choice.
