Dangerous Ultrasounds On Rise Despite Warnings To Moms So why are women getting so many? Well, for the saddest of reasons, actually.

"This was the moment I welcomed our fourth baby into the world. Yes I delivered my son during my fourth cesarean. When I discovered I was pregnant I was determined to have a maternal assisted c-section! I talked to every midwife, doctor, and surgeon about what I wanted to do, but they all said it would depend on the surgeon on call that day.

So, when the day came along we waited 8 hours at the hospital, then I was standing there next to the surgeon scrubbing up just as she was. Maybe half an hour later I was lying on the operating table watching my son's head being pulled from my womb. I reached down and put my hands under his arms and lifted the rest of him out of my own body. It was the most incredible thing I have ever done.

I highly recommend you stick to your guns about what birth you want! Welcome earth side baby Spencer." Sarah
