[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's a major surgery op why would you put yourself through that if you don't have to? Lots of scar tissue can form too. No way.[/quote]

Lol said the poster who didn’t read the previous post. A bad vaginal birth can cause tons of scar tissue. I tore my cervix. That can cause issues getting pregnant again. My  good friend had horrible tearing and needed over 50 stitches.

You also really can’t prevent yourself from tearing or getting scar tissue in a vaginal birth, despite the bull about doing perineal massage ahead of time. It’s a roll of the dice! Consider where you’d prefer to risk having scar tissue. Inside your area where you pee and poop and have sex and wear tampons? Or on your lower abdomen and on your uterus?

Also, plenty of women who have to have emergency C sections don’t get to choose to avoid major surgery. There’s often not a lot of choice in a complicated birth, and when baby is not coming moms often do not have any say if they are having a vacuum, forceps, episiotomy, or a C if they want their child to arrive safely and healthy.
