Take our mini-quiz to tap into more fascinating facts from our survey.
1. True or false: Women who give birth naturally are more likely to have a dream birth than those who have epidurals.
False. Women rated their overall satisfaction and reported whether they had a perfect experience; there was no significant difference between the two groups on both counts.
2. True or false: Second-time moms are more likely to have unmedicated births than first-timers.
True. Twenty-three percent of veterans went au naturel compared with 16 percent of newbies.
3. True or false: Few c-section moms love their experience.
False. In fact, 40 percent reported they were very satisfied. That said, women who had c-sections were still by far the most likely to say that they experienced some disappointment with their birth.
4. True or false: Your surgery odds aren't dramatically different if you have an M.D. or a midwife.
False. Forty percent in our survey who had an M.D. had a c-section; only 9 percent of those who had a midwife or other practitioner did.
