Actually, Will almost came into the world by C-section. In a lot of ways, I wish he had (and not because of any impact on our sex life, thankyouverymuch - the doc helped out with that in her, uh, stitching technique).
Warning: Possible TMI Ahead (as if that wasn't enough, already):
I mostly wish he had because the umbilical cord was compressed against him in the birth canal and he started losing oxygen rapidly - they were this || close to doing an emergency one on me. If I could have foreseen that, I'd have opted for a planned one. I still blame myself in a way for that bit of oxygen getting cut off to him and perhaps causing the developmental delays he's had his whole short life, not to mention the attention deficit problems (God, I so hate to say that term - I used to think it was overdiagnosed, but now I swear we're all seeing it in him) we're seeing now.
C-sections take longer to recover from, I hear. But vaginal births ain't no walk in the park in that respect, either. No one tells you that - it's just something some of us women, lucky us, get to experience.
