[quote=Anonymous]I had two scheduled c-sections (well I guess one was technically an emergency because I went into labor the day before my scheduled C-section but I had maybe 2 contractions) and two very easy recoveries.  I'm a week postpartum and I feel great, just a little sore.  I have friends who had vaginal births whose recoveries were significantly harder than my c-section recoveries (e.g. physical therapy for a year because of pelvic floor issues, major tearing, massive bleeding, etc...), so consider that a vaginal delivery may not be as easy as you are imagining it to be.

I tried an ECV with my first (along with EVERYTHING else) but it failed (no complications, it just didn't work).  We found out later that my baby had the cord wrapped around her three times.  This time around, I didn't bother trying to turn the second baby - I figured it was meant to be.

Anyway, a c-section definitely won't ruin your body.  You may have a little shelf, but if you're in shape with flat abs, it won't be noticeable at all.[/quote]
