Default Re: Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale have a boy!!

Very happy for Gwen!

I haven't had kids, but if I'd had to go through a painful labor and delivery, I might be bitter about celebs who seem to do C-sections to take the easy way out!

I imagine it's probably mostly about convenience, being able to plan and have everything ready and under control, and they have all the resources to do that. But I agree, if it's a much longer and harder recovery than natural delivery I don't much get it.

And I think it's deplorable if some celebs really do it out of vanity to avoid 1 or 2 last weeks of weight gain or because they don't want to deal with the pain. It's labor, the serious business of birthing your child, not a day at the spa!
