[quote=Anonymous]I don’t agree with this, sorry. A planned C section is not the same as an emergency one. Trying to make all forms of birth equal and argue we need better postpartum care doesn’t pass mustard. A planned C section should be a perfectly legitimate choice that is supported and it can be protective of the pelvic floor. Certainly, it comes with other risks so everyone has to choose for themselves. But to act like the pelvic floor is a big mystery means you don’t understand urogynecology. They understand it pretty damn well - and that vaginal and instrumental births are highly associated with PFDs - they just do not have good surgical treatment options right now that don’t fail or cause other problems and good options likely many years away. And yes, pelvic PT is great, but there are plenty of women who aren’t “cured” by it and have to learn to live with really crappy conditions.

My daughter will know that she has a family history of pelvic floor disorders. She will understand the difficulties her grandmother, great grandmother, and mother faced and she will get to choose for herself her mode of delivery and associated risks with full information. [/quote]
