This is interesting because it compares planned CS with vaginal delivery,
but it would be nice to see some data on planned vaginal deliveries that end
in sections, since I would think most CS are via this route.
"Researchers believe that a probable explanation for the different DNA
sequences is that during a vaginal birth, stress builds up gradually and has a
natural outcome. Cesearean babies are exposed to greater amounts of sudden
stress. This causes some genes to mutate in response."
I would think a baby trying to get out via the birth canal, then pulled out
via a surgical site by someone's hands is also stressful. Then again, the
baby may have been under unnatural stresses ( external like pitocin or
internal due to some intrinsic issue) and the CS is the response not the
initial cause...
