how good for you to have the experience you wanted. that's what it's about. you made your choices and you're happy with that; it's great!

personally i know 5 friends who wanted natural childbirth only to end up with C-sections. i find that strange; the pregnant women i know, nearly all of them have scheduled C-sections. it's very weird, IMO.

in my original post, this is what i was referring to, there seems to be a majority of C-sections, planned way ahead of time.

but i think it's great you had what you wanted, several of my friends don't feel the same way, which is unfortunate.

lastly, kuddos to you and all Moms for all you do and have done. the thought of being preg terrifies me, let alone the delivery, and that is just a starting point. you womens are major, i admire you all!
