Is a c-section optional?

Question

Can you chose to have a C section..? I'm terrified of vaginal birth since every time my hubby and I have intercourse I rip and get sore.. Sorry tmi.. I can't have an epidural because my spine is to messed up..

Answer

You'll heal SO much quicker having the baby naturally rather that having your gut cut open. Just saying. Don't volunteer for major surgery when your vagina will just be sore.

Answer

You may or may not tear during delivery but you heal quicker doing a vaginal. I didn't have any pain meds but there are other options than an epi

Answer

C- sections are SO much harder to recover from! It seems like it's the easier route but it's not. Imagine trying to hold or breastfeed your baby with a surgery incision on your stomach. I have lots of friends who got c sections and it was just an awful experience. It's only for emergencies for a reason. It's totally understandable that's you'd be terrified of vaginal delivery but you'll be able to do it when the time comes! I have a "small" vagina and sex after 2nd trimester was almost impossible due to tightening and pain but actually delivery with an epidural is really not that bad! Not fun of course but definitely manageable. I did have to get a few stiches bc I ripped a little during delivery so recovery did hurt and t was hard to move but it's easier to hold and feed your baby with soreness down there than on top of your belly. You can do this and it'll be so worth it!

Answer

I don't think your doctor would approve a c-section unless there was an emergency or some other medical reason. Surgery is quite invasive, the pain you feel from a vaginal delivery will wear off sooner than the pain from a c-section.

Answer

If you have had a child before and it was natural childbirth then they won't give you one unless there is concern

If you have had a c-section before then you might be able too get another one

But if you and baby are fine they will most probably tell you ahh your fine, you and baby are healthy therefore you'll have a natural birth unless there are complications

If something was too happen they might book you in for a c-section

If your overdue they also might book you in for a c-section

Like I got told my pelvic bone isn't very big and they don't know how well labour will be for mee cause they don't think imma stretch very well or whatever happens but cause I'm healthy and baby is healthy natural birth is the only option I have unless complications

Answer

I've had a c section and yes it takes a while to recover. With you not being able to get an epidural you will not be able to get a c section because they use that to numb you from the waist down. Good luck in which ever way you decide to have your baby.
