[quote=Anonymous]Have a little more empathy PP. 50 percent is a roll of the dice. You got lucky with your births. “I’m sorry if you feel that way” is not an apology, and it’s rude. You are right, there is no easy way to birth a child. However, at 40 years old the OP is much more likely to end up having a C section even if she wanted a vaginal birth, she’s at a much greater risk of levator ani avulsion than if she were at a younger age, and she’s at a greater risk for complications. If it’s a pretty high likelihood that your birth may end up with an emergency C section, it’s a reasonable choice for her to decide to avoid a trial of labor and just have a scheduled C. The risks for a planned C are far less than an emergency C.[/quote]
