My boyfriend wants me to opt for a c section because his small mind thinks that my down stairs will never go back to normal. Opinions on this?

cookie wish that was my experience. I had vb first then elcs this time... It was definitly the first one that did all the damage 😂

Tell him that penis enlargement is an option if he lacks confidence in his ability to satisfy you after your (hopefully) natural birth! Or, he could just go fuck himself and it won't be an issue!

BiddyBooBiddy · 31/12/2016 21:33

WOW what a tosser!!!! DH watched our first being born and was here for our 2nd on the other side to give midwives space as we had a home birth. He says all the same downstairs. It might not be, but I prefer what he says.

You're well rid. This IMO is a good reason.

061678719x · 31/12/2016 21:38

So I told him about me writing this. And he says I have not told you all the reasons. The other reasons are that i apparently won't want to have sex with him again and this will ruin our relationship and that he thinks I will pee myself. ( even tho this can happen after c sections too)

Oh no Sad sorry your boyfriend is such a dick.

C sections hurt a lot more than a vaginal birth ime. 6 weeks of not being able to life, hoover, drive, struggling to turn over in bed and get to baby... plus the scar and overhang and possible complications of major surgery under anaesthesia. Why would you want to be with someone who would prefer you to go through that for his supposed sexual pleasure??

HappyFlappy · 31/12/2016 21:40

a man who wants you to go through unnecessary major abdominal surgery in the interests of his future sexual satisfaction is not worth your time. had a normal vaginal delivery.

If I had to doit again, I wouldn't choose the C-section.

Exactly this!

I've had a C-section, and I've

Hercules12 · 31/12/2016 21:41

He sounds a real keeper. Good luck.

HappyFlappy · 31/12/2016 21:41

Mmm- don't know what happened to my post - please rearrange the words into what might become a well-known phrase or saying.

(It appears that my "difference of opinion" with the autocorrect is going to go into 2017 . . . )

HappyFlappy · 31/12/2016 21:43

i apparently won't want to have sex with him again

That is why no woman on earth every has ore than one pregnancy.

RedToothBrush · 31/12/2016 21:43

Nothing wrong with an ELCS in the right situation.

Everything wrong with a boyfriend who tells you what you should do with your body for the perceived benefit of his pleasure ahead of your health and mental health.

What do YOU want?

PaulDacresConscience · 31/12/2016 21:43

Yes because God forbid you aren't raring to go as a mobile fuck toy for him, one nano-second after you've had the baby Hmm

Dump this fucking loser. Anyone who is seriously suggesting that you should undergo major abdominal surgery when it isn't necessary, for the sole purpose of preserving HIS sexual pleasure and needs, is a fucking tosser of the highest order.

Find a better bloke. They do exist!

Only1scoop · 31/12/2016 21:43

Sounds like an amazing catch Confused

GingerHollyandIvy · 31/12/2016 21:45

You will likely bounce back physically, given time to heal and recuperate. He, on the other hand, will ALWAYS remain a dick.

MountainPeaks · 31/12/2016 21:46

Pretty certain that vaginas are stretchy and do return back to what they were...

i haven't had a baby yet, please tell me that they do?

caroldecker · 31/12/2016 21:47

Entirely your choice, and he does sound a dick. However, NICE recommendations show no greater risk for elective C section vs vaginal birth. The risks of each are different, but overall they are the same.

TrillKitten · 31/12/2016 21:47

If he wants you to have massive surgery not because of your safety, not because of the baby's safety but because he's worried about how your genitals are going to feel on his dick afterwards.. I can only imagine what kind of ignorant and selfish partner and father he is going to be.. I really hope for you & your child's sake this is an aberration and he isn't usually like this??!

Benedikte2 · 31/12/2016 21:49

Well I've learnt something today. Always thought a C section caused less damage to sphincter muscles -- mine were damaged by forceps and my condition continue to get worse over the years despite repair op.
So I guess there isn't any reason to prefer a C S except to ensure baby's well being.
OP your BF is talking through a hole in his head, but then misogynists usually do.

Lynnm63 · 31/12/2016 21:50

Obviously it's no. You won't want sex with him because he's an entitled dickhead not because you pushed a human out of your fanjo.
Do take him to your next appointment so he can tell the midwife or consultant why you need a csection. I'll be highly amusing for you. Maybe you can film it on your phone so you can remember his bollocking word for word.
I had two c sections first one emergency second was twins and was planned but became an emergency. I still had incintinence issues a few years later from the twins and needed an op.

Pikawhoo · 31/12/2016 21:50

Tell him to have a penis enlargement op instead ;-) :-D

fallenempires · 31/12/2016 21:51

Remind both yourself & us why you are actually having a child with this man fuckwit?

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 31/12/2016 21:51

Buy the wanker a fleshlight and tell him to crack on.

Dickhead!

LilQueenie · 31/12/2016 21:51

Well if he is afraid of not feeling it slam his dick in the door . Problem solved. and change the locks. Angry self centered git.

Puppymouse · 31/12/2016 21:52

I had an elective c-section. It was my choice and went smoothly. But I couldn't poo for ages and couldn't tell if I needed to pee for about six months. Despite nothing coming out of my downstairs. He's not a keeper OP.

RosieThorn · 31/12/2016 21:53

With that attitude I'm surprised you ever wanted to have sex with him at all!

FannyWisdom · 31/12/2016 21:53

Didn't have time to chat to this genius before deciding on sharing a child eh?
