fortunately, I had a really good doctor (same for both) who must have believed in vaginal deliveries. I remember when Daughter No. 2 was born, a number of nurses and other people came to observe the procedure where she was delivered by the doctor, and they were all pretty impressed.
Me too.
I'm a DES daughter---my mother took DES, a drug to prevent miscarriage, in the 50s, which later turned out to cause cancer in the female children. Fortunately, I missed the cancer, but it apparently altered the shape of my uterus, so that any children I would have would be positioned wrong. First child was premature; second child almost was. I got lucky, as I said.
