I want a C-Section!
Nineteen bloated weepy years ago I bought all the books and magazines I could find about what was happening to my pregnant body. And although much sideways-standing in mirrors ensued nothing obvious happened for quite some time, so I continued reading.

Yep-and the same for me. i had one "natural" birth and c section and the section was by FAR the easier birth. Lost a couple of friends over it too because they had the disney version you mention and made me feel like crap because i just didnt LOVE every minute of the experience! Which then made me feel terribly isolated while raising toddlers. While you were having your son i had just had my daughter but in Florida-with we could have talked THEN!
I know how you feel! although I've done close to natural child birth twice (ish) I've had to be induced (my cervix is Ft Knox) with each of my 4 children, the first came out just fine once induced, the second, well the DR was in a hurry, and threatened me with a C-section, and gave me a epidural (that only numbed my legs? and then didn't wear off properly) the third ended in an emergency C-section (got tangled in his cord! WAY tangled, nearly tore my placenta out) and the 4th was a V-bac, throw in vomiting for 6 months, and a belly too large to drive after that, oh and don't forget bed rest for the contractions every 3 min the last 3 months! and yeah I wanna kick those, " I just LOVE being preg!" ppl. OH, and I had 3 miscarriages that I had to have D&C's for in between the 4 kids, to get the 4 kids. I think, as long as baby and mom are healthy, who cares? (although I do recommend TRYING to not have an epidural, just cause I know how WRONG they can go, I do it from a non judgmental place tho.)
