[QUOTE="klmno, post: 456954, member: 3699"] Trust me- I know that. I, like most first-time expectant moms, wanted to give birth naturally and without medications too. But after inducing labor didn't result in any contractions until the I V was cranked up, then contractions only got difficult child's to the point of being visible, I had the epidural, then tried the pushing more then wwhen the dr told me difficult child and I both were starting to lose oxygen so I had to choose between him using forceps to try to pull difficult child out or a c-section, I opted for the c-section. Now, in my mind, if I'd gotten pregnant again, I would have gone into it saying "c-section", and that dr who delivered difficult child recommended that, too. So to me, that's the easy way out. But I do get that it's still not "easy" or pain-free or makes anyone any less of a woman. But boss is like so many others I've had to deal with the past few years- from extended family to those in juvy court system, etc- they don't know these things and it's so obvious to others that they don't know, yet they won't listen to anyone then try to criticize others and tell them what to do and say others are not respectful or whatever when they won't listen to them. I'm hoping that all this wakes boss up a little to some things. I was really concerned that boss is so hard-headed that his wife would have tried until she or the babby died to avoid his criticism if it got to a point where a c-section was the only feasible thing for her. Fortunately, they did give in and go with it before it caused harm to mother or child. [/QUOTE]
