the operation is the "best way of escape for the baby as it is birth

Some people have this wonderful gift for turning an apology into
an intellectual insult. "...So sorry about cutting your abdomen
open, but *your* convenience was much more important than any
infections/antibiotics--with or without subsequent yeast--/pain/
hospitalization/scarring, etc.etc. (in short--inconvenience *we*
caused) which might have resulted."

At the risk of abusing Jack Newman's copyright/patent pending/
one-size-fits-all word for which there are no adequate substitutes,
Aarggghhhhh!!!

Those who have seen "Man of LaMancha" (the musical based on the
Story of Don Quixote) will probably recognize this variation on
the chorus of "We're Only Thinking of YOU"!
