Non medical Elective C Section

[~mamaspice~]

My elective CS was for medical reasons (and I didn't like it) but a friend of mine had an elective CS with no medical reason. She is early 40's and it took her a few years to conceive through IVF. She wasn't opposed when her OB suggested a caesarean and to my knoweledge she has no regrets. Everyone is different though. You have to make the right choice for you.

My DS was delivered by c-section - with no medical reason. From things that I had been told - I didn't believe I could have a child naturally.

I didn't regret it, nor feel the desire to have a vaginal birth until he was 4 months old.

Recovery was ok - i healed well - although was perhaps more painful than needed to be because I was told the wrong information about pain relief.
