I was told after labor that if I were to get pregnant again I would have to have a C-section, regular labor terrified…

@aileen_west exactly!

@aileen_west I got the epidural super early. They even gave me pitocin, broke my water, used the vacuume twice and the forceps, but the forceps wouldn't fit. I pushed for 2 and a half hours and he came out not breathing cause the cord was wrapped around his neck.

@mama.kay lmao. I'm still healing so I'm not even close to thinking I want more. He has scabs on his head still from labor and I still wince when I look at them cause that hurt bad and I'm sure didn't feel good for him either..

It was bad, like they suck don’t get me wrong. But it’s over pretty quickly, things heal and it’s sooo worth it. I had theeee worst pregnancy/birth and I already wanna do it again 😅🤣

@bluepenguin my boy was only 7 pounds 4 ounces at birth. Just a little guy😍

I had 2 c sections.

I never got the chance to actually push a baby out but I feel like I’d rather have a c section. Like obviously any kind of surgery sucks and the healing process takes more time but my overall experience wasn’t horrible. My babies were healthy and so was I and that’s all that mattered in the end.

@mariahlynncarr0628 oh i definitely understand I was just curious as to why they would immediately recommend it. Everyone's body is different, my first was 8lbs 11oz so I'm kinda worried how big this one will be 😅😅

@bluepenguin my son was horribly stuck and it took alot of tools to get him out safely. She said if he was an ounce bigger he wouldn't have come out and would have had an emergency C-section. Since second babies are usually bigger she fears it would be a rough labor again. Now, I'm not trying to get pregnant anytime soon. But if it were to happen and if my only option was a C-section.. I'd like to be a little educated.

How come they said you'd need to have a c-section ?
