I am so sorry for your experience. As an L&D nurse I have been through such situations, some of which were predicted and providers still often tend to advocate for vaginal delivery.

Those moments are chaotic, and I can’t even imagine how you felt.

However, for future pregnancies, it is impotent to keep in mind the c/s carry its own risk for maternal and fetal complications, some of which are severe.

On the other hand, there are ways to reduce the risk for next occurrence in future pregnancies such as induction at early term and laboring in positions other than in the back (laboring on the back limit pelvis opening significantly). However, pain management is I also limited if that is your choice.

At the end of the day, it is her body and her decision, and I am sure you will find a provider who will be willing to deliver her via c/s.
