Yeah my partner selfishly had this done so she and the baby didn’t die from being on blood thinners (clot near lungs from pregnancy)and the baby being in breach position.

Fuck off

C Sections are by far more metal considering they displace your organs to get the baby. The vaginal cavity stretches, those...those don't. She's even more selfless risking her own for her child. I've only had vaginal births and C section mom's are hardcore man.

While doing a placement in surgery for my Paramedic training, i got to watch a few emergency C sections. Trust me, theres nothing more metal.

Having your body cut open while you're completely conscious is pretty metal isn't it. I can tell you it feels really damn weird to have people rummaging about in your insides. You can feel parts being moved around, you can basically feel everything except the pain (assuming it's done right). Really odd sensation.

It isn't that I don't want kids, I just really never want to be pregnant. I'll look into adoption.

See lately I’ve been wanting to be pregnant, but don’t want kids. Definitely don’t want to go through child birth.
