Ceaser or natural birth?

I'm 28weeks pregnant with our first little one, a boy! I made my mind up on having a ceaser, me and my husband actually but now I'm starting thinking about natural birth, what is the moms experiences of both out there??Ceaser or natural birth?
unless you have an actual medical need for a section,then natural - shorter recovery period.i know people who have had both and most of them would rather have a natural birth any day.that is what women's bodies are designed to do.i don't know where you are but where i am sections aren't just handed out,you have to have an underlying medical need such as placenta previa,previous section,HIV/AIDS.even women with a phobia of childbirth have to jump through hoops before they will be granted one

i had an emergency section.i also developed an infection afterwards.it took me 18 months to fully recover.its been nearly 4 years and i still have problems - my stomach muscles are weak,and sometimes sneezing or coughing in the wrong way can cause me to pull them and it hurts.i tire easily and my stomach aches so much when i'm exhausted.i honestly felt like i had been hit by a truck.instead of enjoying my son,i was on multiple pain killers and antibiotics.i couldn't even hold him because i was in so much pain.one of my worst memories to this day is having to lay in bed while my partner made a bottle,listening to my newborn cry.i couldn't get up to comfort him.my partner walked back in to find us both crying.the worst part of it all is people saying 'you dont know how easy you had it'.none of those people saw me in the weeks,months even,after my sons birth.a section is NOT the easy option,not at allCeaser or natural birth?
Cesarean is major surgery that carries risks for both you and your baby. It should never be done just for convenience or because "birth is scary."



The recovery from a cesarean is usually harder than from a vaginal birth, and there is more risk of death to the mother and baby from a planned cesarean than from a vaginal birth for most women.



Contrary to popular belief, having a cesarean will not "save your body" or prevent urinary incontinence later in life. In fact, it can cause long term discomfort, scarring, and every subsequent cesarean carries more risk and is more technically difficult to perform.



I had both my children vaginally. My sister and best friend both had cesareans. Neither of them was particularly happy about it, despite having pretty uncomplicated procedures, and their surgeries were necessary. They'd both think someone was crazy for choosing it if they didn't have to.



If you're worried about pain, the pain of birth is generally done soon after the birth. If you have a tear, that may take a week or two to feel better. A cesarean recovery usually involves several weeks, and while you may not feel much pain during the process, you WILL have pain after. I'd rather learn how to parent a new baby NOT having to recover from major surgery.
I wanted cesarean as well because my mom said natural birth really messes you up down there, but my partner is really against it because of the longer recovery time and permanent scarring. I have yet to make the choice also, as I am further behind than you in my pregnancy. I plan on asking my doctor the pros and cons of both.Ceaser or natural birth?
Go with natural if they'll let you. Caesarean is only if you have to. It's harder to recover from and it leaves a huge scar, and you can't exercise for six weeks.
mom and baby are healthier w/ a NATURAL birth........Ceaser or natural birth?
You only have a c section if you the doctors tell you that you need one.
