But why should you be dissatisfied with the rate... These women are choosing this! Again freedom of choice! And who are you guys to say that it was an unnecessary c section? So many of you are hypocritical because you believe we should have the option to birth however we like... like water births, homebirths etc. And these have high risks also!

I was ganged up on the other day telling me how bad c/s was and basically I got the impression that I would be failing by have a c/s. If I choose to have a c section - it will be my own choice and no body else will influence that. I refuse to let ANYONE make me feel bad for my choices, that I am entitled to make regardless whether it be necessary or a planned c section.

Women are judging other women! What happens if a woman read this thread just on the side, and her due date came and it turned out she needed a c section - from half of the things some of you have written, she would possibly feel guilty, ashamed and as though she has failed.
