[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one is judging you, [b]you are getting perspectives from people who have had c-sections that it isn't the easier option[/b]. It's also conspiracy minded to think that doctors have some sort of sadistic agenda that keeps them from doing elective sections. They don't like to because all of the data clearly points to them being more dangerous for the mother, despite what people on here might say.

She's getting a good number of perspectives from people who have had emergency, unscheduled c-sections which is so far from a planned section it is basically irrelevant. For some women it indeed may be the easier option,  but you don't know that until you're giving birth vaginally and about to end uo with lifelong pain and damage.[/quote]

Once again, because people don't seem to get it. Yes, there are risks of complications for vaginal birth. Those risks are FAR LESS LIKELY than the risks of complications with a (even planned) c-section. Of course there are horror stories from both experiences, but the data shows that vaginal delivery is by far safer.

If 100 women had a vaginal birth and 10 had complications from that, that's still less than the 20 women out of 100 who had complications from the c-section. No one is saying that there isn't a risk to vaginal, were saying it is statistically way less likely. [/quote]
