Why is having a c section seen as weaker or that we didn't give birth? My husband brought it up today because he's seen people say that on facebook and it made him mad. I risked my life to bring my baby here. I woke up intubated. I couldn't lift my arms for a week after she was born, my husband had to feed me. Day six I could barely breathe because the anesthesiologist messed up so bad and none of it mattered because I brought her into the world. How does that not count?
