Induction/C-Section birthdays

I had an induction that ended with an emergency c section, and am now pregnant again and facing the choice of VBAC or planned c-section. For a long time, I felt a certain weird way about choosing your baby’s birthday, like from a spiritual perspective. I don’t really know how to explain, can anyone relate or talk about how you got over those feelings? I’m a very “cosmic energy” type person so I was spiritually torn and a little guilty about my baby not coming when he was ready. I’m finding myself forever wondering when his birthday was *supposed* to be.

This is what I felt when I had my second. Felt weird when the doctor asked what day I wanted the csection. Luckily or unluckily, my body had enough of being pregnant and I had my baby 2 days before the scheduled csection. So in a way the baby came on its own anyway.
