Happy for Gwen...but do ANY celebrities actually go into labor and delivery their babies vaginally anymore? The only ones I have read that actually pushed their babies out were Lisa Rinna and (I think) Reese Witherspoon. I really don't understand all these elective C sections. The recovery from a C section is so much worse.

Do they really want to avoid the last week or two of weight gain and stretch marks that badly? Or are they really that scared to birth their babies?

I'm all for C sections if the health of mother or baby warrants it, but I don't understand why doctors are so willing to do them for no medical reason.

In Gwens case it shouldn't be scheduling issues since she is taking time off!
