[quote=Anonymous]I know we prefer not to do Cs if we don't have to.  Having gone through both, I don't understand why, at the first sign of a difficult labor, they don't move to a C.  I had terrible high blood pressure. My first baby wouldn't come out so they ripped her out of me with forceps.  I will have lifelong consequences.  I had to urinate standing up in the shower for two weeks.

A week or so later we found a lump on her neck under her ear and had to start seeing doctors for it.  (resolved on its own).  This set me up for terrible PPD and my kid has horrible anxiety and depression.

Sure, I might have gotten PPD and she might be anxious anyway.  But the experience overall was so, so terrible.  It began a period of alienation between me and my spouse.  Terrible sleep on the part of the baby.  It was just a perfect storm of disaster.

Second baby, I insisted on a high risk OB and a planned C.  Everything went great.  Baby and I were both fine.  No PPD.

I will never understand why they didn't offer me a C right away.    [/quote]
