[quote=Anonymous]I had an unplanned c-section (I know you are asking about elective) and then a VBAC. Both were "great" experiences, so I wouldn't be afraid of a c-section again. But I do want to say, I do have lasting abdominal and pelvic floor damage from my scar (which I would've had even if it were elective). My c-section was 4 years ago and I just recently started seeing a pelvic floor physical therapist. She told me about scar massage and I realized how non-functioning my lower abs were, partly as a result of how "tight" my scar is. This has caused a lot of physical imbalances for me, including contributing to pelvic floor issues. So, make no mistake, it is major abdominal surgery, and just like any surgery, it has lasting impacts. [/quote]
