Ummm, you have complete control over it, but perhaps not in a way that you would find agreeable . . .

Our first child was delivered by c-section, and the second vaginally, 19 years ago, without any problem. I think it's a myth that one c-section requires that all subsequent births be c-sections. You might investigate a bit further, unless your wife would just as soon have another c-section.
