Are C-Sections actually necessary?

Today a c-section is more about money and convenience!

The rate of c sections in America is astounding!! They call it "standard of care". I call it barbaric. Women are not built to birth on their backs.Thank you @BarbaraOneillAU. Let's bring back natural birthing!!❤️🙏🇺🇸💪

This is a very dangerous take. With the onset of obesity in American women, the fetuses are getting much larger, macrasomic, requiring C-Sections. And that's just one factor to consider.

With my first, they let me labor 60 hours and then did a c-section. (Friday night is a bad time to go into labor). Baby had her arm raised over her head and wouldn't put it down. She was trying to dig her way out.

It's all about the money.

After three attempts at natural birth and three c sections, we discovered mine were necessary 🥲 apparently i have an abnormal pelvis that "no baby could ever fit through" according to my doctor

Why the unnecessary curiousity, wanting to know n poke everything. Leave some room for faith. Even quantum physics supports observer effect, then why bother spoiling something divine. If you ever get a problem, or something unusual only and only then, you should ever go for ultra

I had a c-section 42 yrs ago. I still suffer from scar tissue which is still very painful to this day!

Some. But not most

I’ve had three babies and the first two were through the typical OB and hospital model. All of the pre-natal care and hospital birthing experiences ranged from mildly annoying to awful. I can’t say that even one thing felt beneficial or pleasant. My last baby I had a homebirth with a midwife. I declined any testing or interventions other than one blood test to make sure I wasn’t anemic. It was the best pregnancy and birth I’ve had by a landslide.
