I guess I am a bit in the middle. Without knowing what it is you have and how much it affects you/would affect the baby I wouldn't give an opinion one way or the other on whether i think elective c-section is ott.

But if natural birth or the possibility of passing on whatever it is freaks you out that much then i don't see why he should have an issue with it.

When it comes to the actual birth process i think it should be your chioce cause it's your body. I try follow dh's opinions on caffine etc while preg cause that affects the baby which is half his. But the birth is pretty much left up to me. there's not a lot of dif to the baby bwt the two usually. It's more the recovery/risk of the mother and affect on subsquent preg.

I personally liked a natural birth but i had no preferences going into preg/labour. I had the same easy attitude to meds. Whatever happens happens, no preconceptions of i must/n't have a epidural etc. I certainly wasn't against any drugs and was open to taking the lot if i thought it necessary at the time.

partners often have these ideas ingrained from their own mothers. My dh was not fussy about if i bf or not but was agianst childcare. Well our dd loves childcare abd we benefit both financially and emotionally from my decision to go back to work. these were ideals passed on from his mum that he had to learn to adapt to.
