It sounds like birth by C section at the hospital needs to include measures to transfer the mother's gut bacterium to the child.

C section has become a lifestyle choice (too posh to push) instead of being a medical procedure where necessary for safety. The simple solution is to consider the child’s long term health first not the convenience and default to natural birth unless there is a compelling medical need for invasive intervention.

From reading the article, we could also conclude it may not be crucially shaped in this way.
That suggests it makes little difference. Don't panic!

Babies won’t be formed nor born in zero gravity.
