There are many cases when C-section is justified, and it's great that modern medicine can help in those cases.

But I think most C-sections are unnecessary. And it has drawbacks. For one, it makes start of natural lactation more difficult (lack of strong hormone stimuli in both mom and child, post-surgery difficulties).

Moreover:

There are many cases when hospitalized birth is justified, and it's great that modern medicine can help in those cases, and is available as a backup if needed.

But I think most births can proceed very well in home setting (with the right professional assistance). Better for the mom, better for the child.
