it really is up to what is most comfortable for you. I had a vaginal delivery the first time and am considering a c-section this time around, things didn't go as well for the baby as I had hoped (i guess i could point fingers and say it was the doctor, but at the end of the day the one who suffered was my daughter), so this time around I'm seriously considering a c-section cause I know it's just a matter of taking my kid out, the recovery for me will be harder, but at least my kid will be safe (now if she / he isn't...well, then it's just meant to be!) I'm crossing my fingers....at the end of the day there are risks for both and it's what risk you can bear with...
