Why does it feel wrong for me to say I gave birth because I had a c section. I know it's idiodic but I feel like people will think in their heads (she didn't give birth) if I say that.
Birth Plan Rant I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
Things I never thought I'd say... Until I became a mom:
Soooo a friend of mines just give birth. She says the epidural slows down the birth delivery is that true ? She told me she scream when they cut her ??? Why the fuck she felt that ?lol I don't want to feel when they citing me WTFFFFFFFF .
So as we do... I been reading birth stories with 3pregnancy... is it that bad the way people say it is??? 🤦🏽 ♀ why would my 3rd labour be more painful
I feel horrible because i dont want to be pregnant. I mean i was excited and everything when i found out. Mlre so shocked. But as time is going on, i just dont want to be pregnant. Is that an ok thing to say? Although i already love this little girl and thats mostly why i feel bad for feeling that way. Not sure if something is wrong with me or its just im over it now because i feel like this pregnancy is dragging on

@eashleystrain Exactly I feel like I didn't get that. I didn't get to see him and have them put him on my chest, he had fluid in his lungs so they had to start working on him immediately. Then the next two days I was in such pain I couldn't even see him. It was just awful. But I always tell myself I have him for the rest of my life now :)

My favorite is when people try to say that a C-section baby isn't going to be as healthy as a vaginally delivered baby in the future. I was a C-section baby myself I'm 33 years old I have absolutely no health issues whatsoever except for a couple allergies to medication and I've only been sick 3 times my entire life and it was never anything that severe and none even lasted longer than 3 days. I have the immune system of a goddess!!!

@mommiesaremagical14 I feel the same way, I've honestly never said "when I gave birth" or anything like that and it's silky of course we gave birth! And went through hell afterwards! I didn't get to see my child for two days after I had him because nothing they gave me for pain worked evidently some medicine I'm on had a reaction with the pain meds and caused them to not work, I don't know how but that's the only thing that makes sense. They say you forget the pain, NOPE, you just justify it. I'd do it all over to have my LO but I will never forget it.

I had a C-section and I didn't realize it until now till I read your post that when I've talked about my c-section I never referred to it as giving birth. Though I do believe I did.

I'm serious though, I fear being cut open like that so i give it to the people who need it. I cried when they told me i needed too and I told them nope. He can stay

All very true, I wish I could have had him natural though. I honestly feel robbed of certain moments I should have been able to have. I wish I would have gone into labor and not had an appointment to go in to have him. I hope next time I can have a natural birth. I pray and pray.
