[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]C sections are rough on your body[/quote]

But do you have hemorrhoids? Stretched out vagina? Pee a bit when you sneeze?[/quote]

...nope! Nope! And also  no, but...[b]sneezing when you pee is generally from pelvic floor weakness caused by pregnancy itself, not delivery. [/b]Will add that lots of people (including several friends I know who had c sections) get hemorrhoids DURING pregnancy, not from pushing (and the majority of people who push don't get hemorrhoids).

PP's hip-spreading theory is also wrong, that happens during pregnancy. It happens to some people, and not to others - genetics, mainly.

Try not to be so aggressive and defensive, it makes you sound like you're not at peace with your own decisions. Finally, for all we know PP's "c sections are rough on your body" was in response to the actual question asked [/quote]

Absolutely NOT TRUE that this is "generally" the case.  [b]Vaginal delivery is the culprit.[/b]  Massive trauma to the pelvic floor and levator ani in particular.  But I understand there's a lot of misinformation out there.  Even medical providers don't know what the hell they are talking about.[/quote]

This is completely wrong. Massive numbers of women who had only c-sections have pelvic floor weakness and incontinence. Pregnancy is very hard on the pelvic floor. Same with hemorrhoids. And if you think a vaginal delivery can leave a vagina "stretched out," you are stupid beyond words. Any "looseness" is the result of MUSCULAR weakness, which occurs often after any mode of delivery. Same with peeing when you sneeze. The only time a vaginal delivery causes more damage than a c-section in these areas is when there is an a traumatic delivery with a very long pushing stage, instrumental delivery, etc. [/quote]
