[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious why C-Sections are seen as such a bad thing. I delivered vaginally for my first and it was awful. My care team was great, I just hated everything about the entire process. Seemed like a whole lot of waiting around and being in pain. And I ended up needing an episiotomy and extraction anyway, which then resulted in a bunch of scar tissue that caused problems.

Now that I'm pregnant with my second, a C section sounds pretty darn good. No labor, just go in and get the whole thing done and over with in 15 minutes. I know there's recovery, but recovery from vaginal birth sucked, too. And I know it's surgery, so there are risks associated with that, but from talking with my OB it sounds like it's a very, very small increase of risk.

So why exactly are c-sections seen as so horrible? [/quote]

Ummm I’m sorry but …unless you’ve had a c section you don’t get to say it’s easy. I’m 4 weeks postpartum still can’t walk right or bend or go up the stairs and get gas pains. Oh and I can’t lift my toddler and I can’t nurse right or sneeze or cough right. So they’re not bad, they’re just incredibly freaking difficult on the mom. And only when you’ve had one do you know what a shit show it is. [/quote]
