Can i just say i am really jealous !!
i have so much respect for you, you have made a sound, informed descion and sound really comfortable with it. That takes alot.
I am really struggling at the moment i am having an elective CS for medical reasons but not reasons everyone agrees with and i find people totally insenstive (an me too sensitive) i agree about the bullying and have avoided CS support forms for this very reason, but i saw your post and had to read! You have given me hope and to see so many come in and support you is great.
I honestly cant believe how many people make comment when i say im having a CS, they want to know everything and then try to tell me stories of someone they knew and the problem is its really personal.
I too have researched as much as i can but in my situation there are 2 very divided schools of thought and no hard evidence either way, so all i can do is go off family history and trust my ob.
In saying all that and sorry for the ramble, but your post has really help me understand that i shouldnt feel the need to explain myself and need to find some way that i can sit comfortably with the situation. Like sunshine said no matter what you choose people are always going to add their 2 cents, so you have to be comfortable yourself and believe in the choice you have made to be the right one, then it becomes water off a ducks back .
Thanks for starting this thread and i wish you all the best and will be watching for your birth story, do you have a date for your CS?
