Ftm, btw cesarean and normal which one should i choose or consider?

I was in a similar situation but my gynae was pro-natural so he advised me to book under normal first. He advised me to watch my diet but baby still grew bigger and by 35th week, he was estimated 3.5kg. Gynae then informed me of the higher risk of longer and harder labour. I still wanted normal but by 39th wk, baby estimated to be 3.9kg so when I still have not dilated, only then I decided to go for elective csect 2 days later. I just need to inform at the registration counter of the change on the day of my check-in. I was at Parkway East. Check with ur gynae first. He shld discuss abt ur birth plan soon. For cord blood, I went with Cordlife. If I'm not wrong Cordlife has its booth at all of the Parkway Group hospitals including Mount E Novena.
