like i dont know?

Im so tired and i mean tired of women looking at me like im crazy because i chose to have my pregnancy via c-section. After hey hear you say it tgey have that additude like "why?!! Would you want that the healing process is longer.....blah blah blah blah" and im just sitting there looking at them like i know all this. I seen the pros and cons, and ive noticed its older women that are really knocking it bad. Its not your pregnancy its mine, if you cant support me then shut up. If my Dr and i discussed it and its ok then your point is invalid. Stop pushing your opinion on me. Just stop. You are not going to scare me into vaginal delivery. I dont need you "educating" me on it, its already been gone over. Smh. Was just wondering if im the only one going through this. Omg and yes im a FTM too, they freak out over that aswell and having a c-section. Its pissing me off.

I'm not for or against anyone decision because it's simply their decision and should be respected. But I do respect and understand your frustration with the women who are supporting you, not supporting you.

Omg i feel you! Im having a c section for medical reasons..im a ftm also. When she heard me and my dr discussing the c section she looked at me like i was crazy.. i told her as long as my son is delivered ,healthy, here and with me idc how they do it! Its my body and my son so ill do whatever is best for him..she then said "oh but the doctors are guna say whatever to convince you". I then told her she wasn't a doctor herself to know anything just because she's had vaginal deliveries does not mean she knows it all,hell I'm not a doctor but i would not put my son's health at risk if i knew there May be complications at delivery..i understand the frustration! Lol goodluck ;)

My friend has 3 kids, 2 were c sections, she said she would choose a c section over vaginal any time. So who cares what others think. It's your body, ypur pregnancy,  your baby.
I'm tired of older women looking at me like I'm disgusting or its wrong for me to be pregnant.  I look young but I'll be 30 when the baby is here.  I don't know what is up with people.

I have no idea why everyone think they can tell you what and how should you do...I am very glad to have this baby and having to choose all of this things, but somehow, sometimes I feel like they're stealing my pregnancy. I don't care what anyone thinks about - the bed I should buy, should I rest cos they told me so or not cos they're telling that to everyone...or how should I deliver. I was said practically the same thing about getting an epidural...and I can't stand it. Never found the better way than trying to act like I didn't hear what they said...it more like - ok you gave me your opinion.that's it. won't even respond or get into discussion.
it's not easy but try to ignore them. often is also jealousy and trying to be the best mums of the world so they're taking it out on you to prove they're worth to themselves.

My first kid was a C-section,  not by choice. For some unknown reason, I halted at 3cm. After 24 hours doctors decided to go get him.  I'm having a hard time deciding what to do with my second baby. I don't know what to do. I'm leaning towards a VBAC, but I know that it would be safer with a C-section.  As for you,  it's what you think is best. It's not their body, pregnancy, kid, etc. Everyone has to put their input regardless of how it makes the person feel.  I'm going through the same thing when I try to get others opinions on the VBAC. Good luck!

My sister had c sections with both of her kids ( by choice) and she said her healing process wasn't that bad. She said obviously right after it did hurt but duh u just had surgery...... When she got home she was still able to get up and walk and hold and take care of the baby ...I had four kids two with an epidural and two natural this is baby number five and I honestly have no idea how this labor is going to go so just do what you feel is best for you and your baby its your decision your the one going to be bringing a baby in this world its your choice how you want to do what it tell the women in you r family if they don't like it they ain't gotta be a part of it!!!! And to keep the negative comments to themselves you don't need to hear it you've made your decision and they cant change it!!! Good luck hun!!!!

Girl I'm a FTM and I don't know how my babies birth will go at this point I'm 19 weeks. But I will say you should do what you and your doctor feel are the safest for you and your baby! And when those women say something to you, you should say my doctor feels better w a csection and the doc knows more then me so I do what ever she says! And if they say something shi**y you should say did you go to med school! Do you know my lady parts......um.... NO so leave my babies birth up to the professional! They are really mean to judge you in anyway! Don't let them up set you any more! You know what's best for your baby don't second guess your mother instinct! Good luck!

Everyone is entitled to give birth the way they want in whatever way makes them comfortable. Other people's opinion is invalid. Good luck mama:)

I Also am a first time mom and I have opted for a csection for a couple reasons 1. I would need surgery down there after anyways because of cysts. so they might as well do it at the same time as csection rather than child birth then surgery. Also my mother could never enjoy sex or orgasm the same after natural child birth and she even spent money trying to get the muscles fixed up but it's still not the same. I'm not planning on having tons of kids and I thought a csection would be easier than wondering if I'll have the same problems as my mother. I say so what feels right for you and some women have great recoveries afterwards :)
