Nancy Wainer Cohen in Silent Knife wrote: “when a cesarean is performed, months of planning go up in a puff of smoke; many decisions must be changed, rescinded, or abandoned by the couple. Choices are limited and sometimes impossible. Couples feel as if they are not qualified to make decisions about their own baby’s life. They often become frightened, disoriented, and confused.”
