- Planed C-section July 2, 2008
Hi I'm Camillia and this is my birth story. I am an 18-year-old single mother to a beautiful little girl. - Thank God It Was a C-section
I knew before I was ever pregnant that I would never be able to deliver a child naturally due to having a heart condition since birth. The stress and strain of carrying a child would be too much, let alone labor. - My Little Daughter

I found out very early on that I was going to have to have a Cesarean section. I was pretty bummed out at first but then eventually got used to the idea. - Wonderful Experience
I read all the Cesarean section stories out there as soon as I found out at 35 weeks that I would probably have to deliver Cesarean due to the baby being too big. Let me tell you, I was scared! - First Baby, Induction, Then C-section Two Weeks Later

My first pregnancy was uneventful, with no morning sickness, not much weight gain. - First Baby, 12 Days Overdue, Scheduled C-section
I was 10 days overdue with my first child when my OB/GYN decided to schedule a cesarean section because the head would not engage and the baby looked rather large according to an ultrasound. I was shocked when the word cesarean was brought up. - Placenta Previa Cesarean
I am from Korea, and I was diagnosed with placenta previa earlier in my pregnancy. A prenatal ultrasound discovers complete placenta previa, where the placenta covers the cervical opening, making a vaginal delivery both dangerous and not an option. - My First Baby
The process of carrying and delivering my first child was the best time of my entire life. I found out I was pregnant in August 2003. - Cesarean, Second Due May 31 by VBAC
I had my baby four and a half days early elected Cesarean because I had placenta previa and he was breech. I was booked in the Royal Women's Hospital in Brisbane. - Isaiah: Precious First Baby

For 12 long years we had been waiting for Shannen Werly to be born (weighing 7.6 pounds and 20 inches long). - Matthew: God's Gift
