Elective C-section?


As so many of us know 1 out of 3 babies are born via c-section. Victoria Beckham opted to have an elective c-section with her first baby and is now preparing to deliver her baby girl via c-section for the 4th time this weekend.

Surgery for a c-section costs thousands more than a traditional vaginal birth, which is making alot people think that maybe it shouldn't be covered by insurance. Many people think that pregnant women on medicaid are often pushed to have c-sections because its more costly. As for myself, i gave birth to my son via c-section and it was due to failure to progress. But now knowing the complications, pain, and fear that comes with giving birth period i know why some women might pick an elective c-section just because.

Do you think that insurance companies should cover elective c-sections?
