I think the risk of v is higher in natural childbirth! A lot of women don't v, but I know a lot that did. My sister was one of them (from the sheer pain of the baby's position.) They can give you anti-emetics in your IV to help you. Why be a martyr if medicine is available to keep you out of pain and feeling okay? Good luck to you on your journey!
