Shoulder Dystocia

My last baby was born with shoulder dystocia. This pregnancy, they  told me I have about 18% chance of it happening again. (82% chance of it not happening though). 

Dr has given me the option of planned c-section, but also seems willing to deliver vaginally. 

The birth of planned c-section sounds like a dream, but I have other littles at home and worried about the recovery and taking care of my kids post-op. 

Anybody else have prior issues birth with shoulder dystocia? What are you planning to do?
