Confusion when facing the choice of delivery method

  As the due date approaches, many mothers-to-be are faced with the dilemma of whether to have a vaginal birth or a cesarean delivery.  Confusion 1: Do I have the right to choose between vaginal and cesarean delivery?  Confusion 2: If I choose vaginal delivery initially, can I change to cesarean delivery at any time during the delivery?  Confusion 3: If I choose vaginal delivery, will I have to change to C-section in the middle of the delivery for various reasons and suffer twice?  Confusion 4: If I choose vaginal delivery, will I need forceps or suction to assist the delivery, which will put the mother and child at greater risk?  Confusion 5: If I choose vaginal delivery, will I have to have a lateral episiotomy?  Maybe you have other confusions of one kind or another, I hope you can tell me, and here I hope to share my clinical and motherly experience with all mothers-to-be!
