Hello,

Babies can enter this world in one of two ways, Pregnant women can have either a vaginal birth or a surgical delivery by Caesarean section, but the ultimate goal of both delivery methods is to safely give birth to a healthy baby.
C section are planned for medical reason when normal delivery as risky such as twin, diabetes, high BP or infection or complication during pregnancy, otherwise she can go for normal delivery.

C section is very safe and convenient way of delivery, if she want not to take any pain or risk than go for C-section.
There is no problem in going with C section.

I hope this answers your query.
