Will she have another C-Section?

Other fans want to know if Raven will go straight for another C-Section or if she will attempt a vaginal birth. Raven said, “I would love to have a vaginal delivery, but I’m not going to stress about it. I will be honest, after having Gates via emergency C-Section, it really messed with me! I felt kind of like a failure. Gates’ cord was wrapped around his neck three times.”

She continued on saying, “But after talking to other C-Section moms, this was such a common feeling among a lot of us. The best thing a friend ever told me was – it doesn’t matter how he got here, he’s here, end of story. And that’s truly what helped me heal emotionally. I never thought I would feel so defeated about having a C-Section, but now I see it as a blessing! My baby is here!”
