One doctor Indian, the other Pakistani. 'king outrageous, just preying on their naivety.

My first was a normal delivery, second was a cesarean. If I had to go back and do it again I would choose normal delivery but was advised against it due to possible complications. Now that we know she would have been fine its okay but it took me a HELL of a lot longer to recover from the cesarean than the normal. The normal was obviously more painful during the delivery though.. still makes me wince & cross my legs to even remember it!
