    Please allow me to tell you that my repeat C-Section was night and day compared to my first delivery, which was an unplanned CS.  I was on the fence for a while about what I wanted to do, because I felt like I had a rough recovery the first time around.  This time though, I was up and out of bed within hours, I hardly even needed to take my pain medication, and I just generally felt more "present" for the entire experience.  If you have any questions you think I might be able to help you with in regards to that decision, please let me know.

    I've been meaning to type up a birth story as well.  As soon as I do, I'll let you know so that you can get a little bit better idea of what the repeat CS was like for me.

     Thanks Ritzy!  I'd love to hear your birth story and I'm so glad your C-section was much easier this time around!  DD was breeched, so my CS was planned and the recovery wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.  It's just one of those things where it's not how you picture giving birth.  But, I would hate to try to do a VBAC this time around and then end up with a CS anyways, because I've heard that's when the recovery is much harder.  Decisions, Decisions!  At least I have some time to think about it!
