How to decide normal delivery or c section

It depends on whether you want to heal fast or slow. It also depends on your birth experience. Some natural birth can cause 4th degree tears while some c-sect recovery isn’t as difficult. If I had given the chance to turn back time, I would choose natural delivery again. My firstborn had be delivered via emergency c-sect. Was asked to push but I didn’t have any urge to push at all. Eventually I had to go for emergency c-sect. Wasn’t our choice at all but to save baby and my life as both of us were not in good condition. Post-delivery I developed pre-eclampsia. Was hospitalised for 6 days. I only started walking on the 3rd day because I was scared of the pain on my tummy. You’ll definitely feel contractions again after birth as your uterus is contracting back to its normal size. Back home, you’ll need lots of help whether it’s natural or c-sect delivery though you’ll need more for c-sect as you are not supposed to bend down or carry heavy things. You must always monitor your wound as well for any signs of infection. Always wear a binder right after surgery until you recover. Helps the jiggly stomach with wound from moving too much. Do your confinement and post-natal massage too. C-sect recovery will take longer but you won’t notice cause you’re too busy handling newborn and yourself. Whatever you choose, may it be the best for you.
