I was talking to one of my friends who just had a baby and when I asked if it was a natural birth she looked at me in shock and said she opted for a Cesarean section.
When I asked her why, she said she couldn't bear the thought of pushing out the baby and going through pain or the risk of having tears.
The truth is that Cesarean sections used to be the last option when there are complications from pushing naturally but nowadays more women are opting for it with some even saying they want to be able to choose their babies birth-date.

However, the World Health Organisation, WHO, is now calling on medical doctors to only perform Cesarean sections when medically necessary.
In a statement released yesterday in Geneva, WHO says although the Cesarean section can save lives, it is being performed without medical need and putting women and their babies at risk of short and long term health problems.
I really hope doctors and even pregnant women will adhere to this.
