Does Age Matter?

Hey, i just became 15 years old and im 26+5, i would like to know if it because of my age i need to get a c-section or can i give birth naturally like i wish too? I am having a pretty normal & healthy pregnancy so does age matter?

I got pregnant at 15 & 16 and I was 98 pounds soak n wet & I pushed both of them babies out. I begged for a c section because I was scared but my baby was head down & they would not give meone & I am glad now. Age dosent make a difference. Usually you only get a c section if the baby is breech, you have complications during delivery or the baby is a huge baby.

age is not a reason to get a c-section. Go on this website and read up on delivery options. You should talk to your OBGYN or nurse midwife about your delivery.........http://www.pregnancy.org/labor-and-delivery

It doesn't matter in terms of a C-section.  You won't need a C-section merely from being 15.
