Delivery options.

I did a vaginal birth after two c sections. When there was a risk that I had a prolapse after my vaginal delivery I looked into this quite a bit and I would never do it again if I had had one. I’m considering going back to c sections even tho I didn’t. The risk of my body not working anymore in that sense, which is several ways when you think about it, was way too great and too scary for me personally.
I would opt in for a c section if I had already had prolapse surgery and I’m so sorry I wish that wasn’t my advice but it surely is.

But don’t forget, your birth plan is UP TO YOU! You can and should decide what is going to make you the happiest and give you the most power!

Thank you! Can you get an elective c-section and still let your body go into labor naturally? Do you get immediate golden hour?

hey! I had a emergency c section and I am going to have an elective in late January (due date is Feb 3rd but they dusky do it at 39weeks) in my emergency c section I asked it hold baby straight away and they actually let me! I have heard for elective C-sections that they go over your birth plan with you before they do anything and that as long as you and baby are both healthy. You can immediately hold the baby!

@Melissa, okay, that's good. I read about family centered c-sectionw which is really reassuring if I have to go this route. Thank you for giving me more reassurance that this can be a bonding experience as well.

no it it’s elective you go in on the day they choose with you. They usually end up taking them at 39 weeks so that they’re a little smaller and more manageable.
