Elective c-section vs vaginal birth

I was pretty confident in my decision to have an elective c-section. I suffer from vaginismus, really struggle with vaginal exams and I’m terrified of instrumental delivery. But I had an appointment with an obstetrician yesterday and although she wasn’t judgy she was so heavily in favour of vaginal birth and really scared me about elective c-section particularly increasing risk of miscarriage and still born etc in future pregnancy and the baby having to go into neonatal care risk being higher.
I’m not really sure what my question is - just feeling very overwhelmed and wondered if others have made this decision their reasons for it and how they feel confident in it.
Thank you all

leaky boobs🫣

currently 22 weeks, started noticing my nipples leaking (clear but sometimes yellow) slightly since 19 weeks, which has gradually increased. just wondering has anyone else experienced this at this stage? i’m worried that it’s too early to be producing colostrum

38 weeks and 0 dilated.

FTM - So doctor did a cervical check today and he said my cérvix is closed. I feel frustrated.
My due date is Jun 19. I would like to start labor naturally. Any suggestions?

Pain in stomach

Hey all, I keep getting a strange pain, it's slightly to the left but middle of my stomach, it's nothing major and I am not sure if it's me trying to digest or whether it's baby pushing up against my stomach. I am 21 weeks, has anyone had anything similar?
