Perhaps the new information below should be considered prior to making a decision regarding a vaginal delivery:

Vaginal Child Birth Can Cause 3 Times the Likelihood of Incontinence in Women

New research coming out of the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden finds that women are nearly three times more likely to experience urinary incontinence for more than 10 years following a vaginal delivery rather than a caesarean section. The study included women who had only one child and assessed their prevalence of UI for less than five years, between 5-10 years and for more than 10 years.

Women are much more likely than men to experience urinary incontinence. In fact, incontinence can cause monthly on-the-job, performance-related issues for more than one-third of women in the U.S. work-force. According to a University of Michigan study, women who indicated that incontinence had a negative effect on their work stated their ability to complete tasks without interruption (34 percent) and their self-confidence (28 percent) were affected significantly. See the below article for a chart and more information.
