For myself.. that’s the last thing I thought of because we don’t have plans for a second child in the meantime (our plan is that when our firstborn is 2 then we’ll start trying). Recovery time was my first priority and since baby was already head down and no complications, I can choose from both options. After I gave birth, both of us were so tired that all we think of is sleep when it comes to bed (we don’t have extra help/CL), on top of that, I had to pump frequently so it gets more tiring for me with the frequent wakes.
