Anyone who peruses this page the odd time will know the notion of childbirth is enough to instil a major case of the heebie-jeebs. The medical term is Tocophobia, apparently. That, coupled with my Emetophobia (a fear of vomit, which renders the daily walk to work a perilous event), will make having children a lively life change. Point being, if I knew I'd have the option of a C Section, no quibbles, I'd feel a fair bit more relaxed about the inevitable child springing forth. The thing is though, C Sections aren't just offered willy nilly usually, and with good reason. Your recovery time is far longer and it's just better to have a natural birth where possible. And the baby arrives when it's ready, instead of being "untimely ripped" to fit into, let's say, a footballing schedule.

According to The Sun: "Pregnant Colleen Rooney is planning a Caesarean birth for her baby, so hubby Wayne can play for England in a key World Cup qualifier. Coleen, 23, is expecting the superstar striker's first child on October 10. But The Sun told how Wayne might have to miss England’s clash in Ukraine that day to be at her side. Now pals have revealed that excited Coleen has consulted doctors about having a Caesarean in late September. That would allow Man Utd ace Wayne, 23, to witness the birth and help care for their tot in its earliest days before joining his countrymen for the crunch match...  The op would see her follow in the footsteps of fellow wag Victoria Beckham, who gave birth to all three of husband David's sons via C-section."

I know celebrity sorts would balk at the thought of huffing and puffing with their limbs akimbo in full view of a medical team (that's why I've found something resembling respect for Jenna Jameson for recently birthing her twins as nature intended… then again, everyone's used to her huffing and puffing with the limbs akimbo) but they seriously are one step away from paying surrogates to grow the babies for them, such is the inconvenience.
