Elective C section
Show your support
I'm having a scheduled c-section though I'm having twins so it's more common. Theoretically, I could try vaginal but I'm really scared of it and like the idea of showing up and getting numb and meeting my babies less than an hour later. I totally understand wanting control
Girl, do what feels right for you. Doesn’t make you less of a woman or a bad mom. I have a c section scheduled for the 4th. Decided to do that because my baby is on the bigger side but also was leaning towards it already because of the same reasons you have. My opinion is what makes you feel comfortable and happy will be what’s best for the baby unless the doctor says otherwise. Sending you love and good energy. We are almost there! ❤️
I have a scheduled c section coming up on Nov 8th! Don’t let anyone make you feel bad about it ♥️
I got so much shit for having a c section even though mine wasn't elective. I have 4 different pelvic floor illnesses due to falling 2 stories off a roof and being raped after. I had doctors notes about my illnesses, patient statements for women who went through vaginal births and literally were never the same. Doctors are all terrified of being sued and technically c sections are riskier because it is a major surgery so I think that's why they judge and give others such a hard time. It all stopped once I wrote a very strongly worded letter about how I would not be having a vaginal birth and why. I'm sorry you have to advocate for yourself so hard. It's your body, you should be able to do what you want. And for the record c section is NOT the easy way out. Take it from someone who's had one before. You are a strong mama and I hope you get the support you need
Yess since I had an emergency c section with my first I am planning on having an elective C-section at 41w if baby doesn’t want to come naturally before, I’m too scared to go through an induction and honestly feel safer with a C-section
I’m going to ask my doctor Monday if I can schedule a c section I had a rather long and traumatic first birth and just thinking about this baby coming out is making me real anxious so I will do that too Also your body your choice!
