[quote=Anonymous]A scheduled c-section is really a relatively easy recovery. Yes, it is major surgery, but it is a surgery that the OBs and anesthesiologists do every day and complications are rare. I've had two c-sections; one after hours of labor, one scheduled. Recovery from both took about 2 weeks, but I was on my feet and feeling pretty good just a day after the scheduled one. You'll have to take it easy and not pick up your older children for a while, but it really sounds better than the alternative. I've never had a broken tailbone, but I've had a bruised one. That pain for a few months was much worse than c-section pain. I cannot imagine dealing with a newborn and trying to figure out how to comfortably sit or lie down at the same time. Good luck to you, whatever choice you make.[/quote]
