Why can’t people just be supportive?
I have 2 kids. With my first my pregnancy was miserable and my labor and delivery was fantastic. Long (25 hours) but he was born healthy and was a vaginal birth.
My second, my pregnancy was decent but the birth.... was a nightmare. Actually my worst nightmare came to life. Literally. Here’s a glimpse...
I went in for a normal appointment, found out there was not enough amniotic fluid around her. Went for an induction the same day, 3 hours into it her cord prolapsed and I had to have an emergency c section. They found no heartbeat and so they couldn’t wait for a spinal block or for anesthesia so they had people hold me down while I had the procedure done. Daughter came out not breathing, no heart beat, and blue. It took 3 minutes to revive her and I didn’t get to see her for the first 3 hours due to hemmoraging and needing a ton of blood work done and x-rays. Safe to say it was a Nightmare.
Now I knew before all of this that I didn’t want anymore kids. But after the horrific c section I want to make sure it doesn’t happen. Recovery has sucks so far (it’s been 12 days) and I’m really really not wanting anymore kids so I figured maybe I would talk to my doctor about a tubal.
Now all I keep hearing is, “your so young you’ll probably change your mind”. Or “you have to have more kids, at least one more”. Umm no, my husband and I both don’t want anymore kids and that’s that. So why don’t people just be supportive or not say anything at all. 🤷🏻♀️
