Why don’t more women get c sections?

I’ve read time and again about how absolutely horrendous childbirth is. It rips up your insides, you get labour contractions, and much more.

Why don’t more women choose c sections? It doesn’t hurt because you get numbed and it comes straight out of the womb. I imagine it’d be a lot quicker too.

And before some smug know it all can say it ,no I have never been pregnant.
