Even if you don't have the correct reproductive organs to give birth... If you COULD, what would you choose?

5 weeks ago, I gave birth to my first child, a son I named Merlin, & did it natural.
My preferred birth plan was to go natural, have a water birth & only have an episiotomy if the doctor recommended it.
Well, I got to do it natural, but the hospital I was at didn't have birthing tubs, but I had very supportive nurses on duty & my doctor told me he was going to do the episiotomy after my son's head wouldn't rip me after being RIGHT THERE for 2 contractions.
If I'm being honest, I caved once the third contraction occurred & asked for an epidural. The nurse told me that they would bring the specialist to the room, but they couldn't promise that I would be able to get the medication. I didn't end up getting the epidural, my son was practically out of me when the specialist arrived.
I'm very happy, now that it's over, that my son was moving so quickly that I couldn't get the epidural. I had completed my birth plan, partially, as I intended. I was proud of myself & couldnt believe how AMAZING I felt after it was all said & done.
I couldn't, & still can't, believe I had pushed out an 8.5lb, 22in baby & felt better than expected.
If I were to get pregnant again, I would go natural again, especially after what my nurses informed me of how labor is different from natural & the epidural.
My nurses informed me that there are fewer & fewer people coming in & saying they want to "try" going natural, that there is absolutely zero shame in changing your mind & asking/getting the epidural later! Active labor HURTS! Many people who do go natural only go through with it because it is too late to even do the epidural, as was my mother's case when she went into labor with me.

So, what would YOU do personally?

Let's say you live in a world where zombies with magical powers and physical strength exists. Unfortunately, your 16 year old brother was attacked by a zombie and turned into one. Your mother called the witch doctor and she's currently working on a 'cure' for your brother that'll be ready in one month. Your brother ( who's now a zombie) is an extremely rare case because he still has his memory and self control. He told you that he loves you, he's strong, and promised he wouldn't kill you BUT..-

• He destroyed the table in one punch and your mother had to calm him down.
• You've seen his eyes change color and he roared but quickly reverted back to his normal self. He laughed it off and said he was totally fine.
• One night you wake up to the sounds of hyperventilating and you see your brother staring at you, drooling, bitting his own arm and making himself bleed.

Your mother eventually calms him down but you can tell she's terrified.

At this point you can choose to kill him now or wait another another two weeks to turn him human again and hope he doesn't kill anyone. - what would you do?
