Vaginal or C-Section

Because I am fairly new...i just want to see what everyone had!!

I had an elective c-section (meaning I wanted one...)

What bout y'all?

I had a c-section after 2 days of sitting in the hospital with cervadil and pitocin.

Vaginal both times  

I had an emergency c-section after I was already 10 CM, ended up the baby couldn't get out because the umbilical cord was too short.

How scary! I'm glad everything turned out okay.

I had to have a c-section because I never dilated past 7 cm and his head was too big to pass through the birth canal.

3 c-sections!! I'm an old pro!  )

C-section after being almost 2 weeks late...I never even dialated to 1...the farthest I got was 1/2cm. and she ended being too big...

vaginal-induced- no tearing or cutting, and i pushed him out in 5 minutes, yes i am bragging, because it was AWESOME, and i would have another in a heart beat!

Emergency c-section because he never dropped, was sunny side up and was stuck. I pushed for a while until I got the c-section.

i had a c-section after the induction wasnt working.
deep down i wanted a c-section anyways lol.

I had a vaginal birth but had a c-section scare. After 2 days on Cervadil I still wasn't dialating, the nurse mentioned c-section and I started freaking out. I dialated a whole 10 cm within 2 hours though and I had my baby right there in the hospital room delivered by the nurse, I never made it to the delivery room. Come to find out my baby had the cord wrapped around her neck, she was blue and had a lot of bruising due to her choking but luckily everything turned out fine even without the c-section.

I had both of my boys vaginally. Just curious why you would WANT a c-section? I didn't even know doctors would perform a c-section just because someone wanted one.

I had vaginal births with both of my boys .. They were total opposites too ..

Erics labor was 22 hours and 2 hours of pushing ..

Ryans labor was 9 hours and only like 2 minutes of pushing .. LOL!
