If my mum had c-sections does that make me prone to have one too?

Question

I know my question might sound dumb but my mum had 2 kids and 2 c-sections, and she sometimes talks to me about the fact of me having one, I actually want to have it vaginally (if possible). If my mum had c-sections does that mean I might have to have one too or it doesn't have anything to do with that? Thanks ^^

Answer

Nothing to do with it

Answer

Not at all

Answer

Nope.  
My mom was type 1 diabetic and wasn't given a choice except for c-section with her 2 pregnancies. 
I'm now due anytime with #5 and all vaginal births so far.

Answer

Not at all. Unless her reason was because of narrow hips or something like that and you happen to be built like her. But the way her pregnancies went have no affect on yours, genetics however could play a part in how well your body will handle a vaginal birth.

Answer

My mom was going to have me natural but I was breached so she had to have a c section but just because she needed one doesn't mean I'll have to. Only if you yourself have had a c section once already is when you would have to get another one.

Answer

Nothing to do with each other but both my mother (cervical issues) n I (gestational hypertension that led to preeclampsia) had a c-section

If my mum had c-sections does that make me prone to have one too?
