Hi
Just booked an elcs for dc2. Emcs last time. After a lot of thought and consideration I'm happy enough with the decision.
Last time I hoped to have a hypnobirth. I keep seeing friends on FB talking about their lovely natural births and hearing the same in real life. I am (genuinely) happy for them.
But then I think why in this age of full good discussion about consent, women's control over their bodies, abortion etc. is it still (at least in my experience) pretty much taboo to talk about the potential plus points of caesarean as a birth choice.
I still feel it's the 'wrong' answer to give to people even though I'm content it's the right choice for me.
Does anyone see what I mean, or am I overthinking...
Really interested in views. But please don't flame me :)
