Mr. Ducky, have no fear, there are many praying for your family! My wife had a c section with all 3 of our children (now teenagers) without any issues! The recovery period is a little longer (thankful I am not a woman) and she will need assistance getting around, but she will be fine. Don't worry, take the time to enjoy the moment....before you know it, Landon will be a teenager! If they let you, tell them you want to watch, I did with all three (if your stomach can handle it). Sounds gross, but it was a beautiful experience, that I will never forget. The doctor asked me when our first was born and I asked with the other two.
