*UPDATE* 01/05/22*

Does anyone feel like they “missed out” or are disappointed with having to have a c section vs a vaginal birth?

Like my first resulted in a c section, then an unsuccessful VBAC and now pregnant with my third and I’ve been told no doctor is going to let me labor naturally because of my history, so I never got to really go through labor, contractions, pushing, immediate skin to skin, etc.

I know this is something I cannot change and is what it is, but if I think about it, I get disappointed and just curious is anyone else feel’s the same.

Neither of my first two c sections were planned. I labored over 30 hours with my first for him to be “sunny side up” and we tried a VBAC with my second to have a uterine rupture. I’m now 22+2 with my third and fairly nervous about it knowing I’m going into surgery, again. I also am sore along the incision line. Anyone else scheduling a c section and/or have multiples?
