Caesarian Section: easiest way out?

"It's the easiest way out."

Sounds like a plan?
Well, I 've read it in a blog posted randomly on Facebook.
Incidentally, the post is about childbirth and caesarian section.

Out of my 5 deliveries, only 1 is via normal section.

I had my CS with my second child. I wasn't prepared as I had a normal delivery previously.
Just like my first child, I was just having my usual check up when I was given a go signal for admission.
It was 1pm of 2 July 2002 when I was wheeled to my room.

For the rest of the day up until 8pm, I have no pain. I am, in fact, just lying on my bed enjoying a game of Unreal Tournament in between feeding my firstborn.

I am getting bored and impatient. My OB visited me and ordered that I be induced. Honestly, I was scared as I found the experience with my first really painful. But obviously, I have no choice and so the inducing started. An hour later and still no pain. Another hour, none. when it should have started minutes after the meds are injected thru my IV. I thought it was just fine. I slept through the night and waited. At around 6 am the following day, my SO (significant other) was called to the nurse station.  He came back after a few minutes and he was ghostly pale. He told me that he just gotten off the phone with my Ob and that I was to be cut open. He asked me if I'm okay with it and assured me that he'll be by my side just like the last time. 8 am was the schedule given. While I was having breakfast, the anesthesiologist came and explained to us what to be expected of the procedure. She was so jolly that I almost forgot how painful her story was.
