My gynae also recommended csec cos my baby was near 4kg via ultrascan estimate even though I'm tall. I wanted to try natural delivery so I scheduled elective csect on EDD day should baby not arrive before that but I had contractions before my scheduled csect and natural delivery failed as I couldnt dilate after many hours so it ended up as emergency csect eventually and baby was really born at almost 4kg... Chose to go with emergency csect as I wasnt confident of pushing my baby out as well but turned out it was a good decision as baby had his umbilical cord coiled around his neck so no way he could come out naturally as well. Recovery so far seems okay, at least the wound wasnt as painful as I thought it will be and I didnt need to go through both labour pain and csect pain, because not being able to deliver naturally will end up with emergency csect anyway 😅
