[quote=Anonymous]I had a vaginal delivery with my first and a fairly serious (but not atypical) tear. Sex hurt for over a year. I had a planned c-section with my 2nd (twins). I loved it. Recovery for me was not a picnic but was easier than with the vaginal delivery. Emergency c-sections are a whole different animal from what I understand. Generally speaking, statistically and controlling for pre-existing issues, outcomes for baby are slightly better with c-section. Outcomes for moms are slightly worse. So any additional risk with a c-section is to you, not the baby. Either way, plan to schedule physical therapy for after you recover. It’ll focus on different things depending on your delivery type but will be super helpful either way. [/quote]
