Wanting a C-section instead of normal childbirth I think isn’t logical. You both go through labor, which is the painful part, and afterward the C-section patient is in a lot more pain than the normal birth patient.
Also, I’m 68, have had 5 children (1 set of twins) all normal births, and I just learned a few months ago from my daughter who is a nurse that the normal birth is better for the health of the baby since it helps remove more fluid from the baby’s lungs. Learn something every day.
I guess I do need to correct my statement, not all go through labor, some C-sections are scheduled but many happen after the woman has been through some labor.
I agree with everything you said. Those ladies all ended up having natural births in spite of their flirtation with the allure of C-sections so they saw the light. Well, except the one who did have a C-section but I think that was medical, truthfully. Anyway, between the girls having gone through natural birth themselves and discovering it wasn’t as terrifying as the war stories they all heard, plus seeing how tough the recover was for their friend with the C-section, their slight flirtation with C-sections ended quickly.
