Why so much hate for women who choose Cesaran birth?
“…if they cant do it the right way then they don’t need to get pregnant in the first place…”
Women choose to have tummy tucks and breast lifts, but don’t face nearly as much judgment as they do when they choose to have a c-section. Why is it more acceptable for a woman to take on the risks of surgery to avoid sagging breasts when she’s 50 years old? Women choose c-sections for different reasons, sometimes to try to avoid the pain, but most people think recovery from surgery is more painful than labor. Some women just want to protect their “sex appeal” and urinary functions, by not passing a baby through their vagina.
And is it just me, but it seems women who were “lucky” enough to have a vaginal labor without any complications are the first to pass judgment on women who choose to have a c-section. I know, it’s not all women, but you know they’re out there.
So why so much hate? Why so much judgment and criticism? Why is it ok to avoid a saggy belly through surgery than to avoid the pain of labor and pushing a baby through your vagina?

“And don’t tell me it’s not true.”
Why not? This is the first I’ve ever heard of this.
The pain and recovery time for a csection is alot worse than vaginal delivery. I guess there are some women who choose it but I dont think there are many. Anyway I dont know anyone who has ever given a woman a hard time about it.
Someone said that to you??? That’s heartless. Wow.
I don’t know why there is so much judgment. it’s weird how women do that to one another over childbirth choices. You can’t win. If you have a c-section, you’re bad, unless it was an emergency one. if you have a natural birth with no meds, you’re a crunchy earth mama hippie who thinks she’s tough stuff. If you use meds or, God forbid, have an epidural, you’re poisoning your baby and you are weak for giving in to the doctors. It is brutal out there!
Anyways. I’ve had a c-section and it sucked. I can understand why women choose to have them even though they technically don’t need them. Having an elective one to avoid pain may backfire though, as the recovery is quite painful and lasts longer than the pain from a vaginal delivery! Anyways, I don’t hate or judge – my only thing is that it’s major abdominal surgery, it is not without risks, and I’d encourage the woman to consider a vaginal delivery over the surgery, for her own sake. But if she goes ahead with it, fine. Her choice, and I don’t think she’s wrong or bad for doing it. Sometimes there are good reasons!
If you want to avoid the pain and the work, though, I would suggest you get an epidural. I had one with my last birth, and it was fantastic. I didn’t feel a thing, pushing was a breeze, and once the freezing wore off and I was up and walking, I wasn’t sore down below at all. I was amazed! Way better than my first delivery and my c-section. Of my 3 births that one was absolutely the easiest physically. Epidurals rock. lol
I think it’s a bit weird because there’s all the evidence that it’s more painful, harder recovery, more risks (including for the baby I believe) etc. yet some people still do it – I wouldn’t say hate but I do find it hard to understand the decision, as do most people. It’s not recommended by doctors either, most refuse elective c-sections for a reason. Choosing one just seems like an uneducated decision.
I don’t like any cosmetic surgery much though. I do find the idea of risking your health, seriously, for shallow ideas, a bit odd.

O.k., sloeg de laatste commentaar me belachelijk. Wetenschappelijk gebleken? Kidding u me? De c- sectiegeboorten worden bedoeld voor hen die complicaties tijdens arbeid hebben. Bijvoorbeeld, gaan een te kleine kulasbaby, moeders de heupen, de noodsituatiesituaties aan waar de childsnavelstreng rond hun halzen verpakt is, en de lijst. Niet dat ben ik hier aan kritiek iedereen voor hun keuzen, nochtans heb ik 4 kinderen gehad, en 3 waren vaginaal. Mijn womenly gebieden worden niet uitgevoerd door de geboorten, is de vagina een spier die kan en naar normaal zal terugkeren zodra het bevallingsproces over is, en de moeder werkt de spier enkel aangezien een andere persoon de spieren in hun organismen uitoefent. De keus om a.c.- sectie aan me te hebben, houdt geen steek, zijn er meer complicaties die zich kunnen voordoen, dan doend dingen de manier zij natuurlijk worden gedaan. Ik heb allebei ervaren, en mijn c- sectie was noodzakelijk om mijn dochtersleven te redden. Als ik haar kon gehad hebben natuurlijk, kunt u wedden ik zou hebben. De vaginale bevallingservaring is niets plotseling van een mirakel, en elke vrouwen dat kan dit doen, zou moeten.
I’ve got nothing to say to that, except this one time I met this woman who actually had a Cesarean with out meds.
Babies have to be born one way or the other.
I didn’t realize there was such a backlash against it. That’s pathetic. Women cry about how much men oppress us, but really we’re far more brutal to each other than most men are. If I were having children, I’d probably rather have a C-section, too.
Because for some reason, there are people that exist that think its their god given right to tell other people how to live their lives.
There is nothing wrong with how anyone’s decides to have their child, there is nothing wrong with how anyone brings life into this world!
You are a grown woman, it is your body and your baby; YOUR choice.
People judge women who have elective c-sections because they are subjecting their infant to the possible complications of a surgery that is not necessary.
I would say the same about women who choose to have any cosmetic surgery while pregnant as well.
Ich habe nie jedermann gehört, dieses zu sagen. Und die Mehrheit einen Frauen weiß ich, dass wem in den letzten 5 Jahren entbunden haben, haben Wechselstrom – Abschnitt gehabt.
because if you choose to have a baby, you can’t choose to do anything for your self at all
I didn' t feststellen tte, dass Cabschnitte jetzt gewählt waren!
Wenn so dann irgendeine Chirurgie mehr eines Risikos ist. Das Kind kann die schlechtere Problematmung haben. Die Tat der Geburt wegtreibt Absonderungen rt, die Wechselstrom – Abschnitt tut nicht.
Infektion, Blutverlust, Embolismus und Abbruch der Gebärmutter während einer folgenden Schwangerschaft sind alle Komplikationen. Bestes, zum die zu vermeiden, wenn möglich.
Ik ga zeker met u akkoord en ik ben droevig als u een slechte tijd wegens uw advies hebt gehad.
Ik heb twee vaginale kinderen één en één VERKIEZINGSc- sectie gehad, was de eerste geboorte vaginally traumatisch en ik verloor bijna mijn zoon, ademde hij niet en zij brachten hem god zij dank terug naar het leven.
De volgende tijd was ik zwanger ik toelaat ik panicked en om a.c.- sectie vroeg, het ziekenhuis dat wordt geprobeerd om me uit het te spreken maar ik was vastbesloten om mijn dochter te hebben deze manier.
Ik had vroeg a.c.- sectie 3 weken en mijn dochter was 8lb 8oz.
Ik ben niet beschaamd van het verkiezen om mijn dochter te hebben deze manier en ik geloof ik het juiste ding deed aangezien het ziekenhuis me zij kon naar 12lb de volledige termijn van het geboortegewicht gegaan zijn vertelde.
Geen dank had ik genoeg van een schrik met mijn zoon bij zuivere 10lb.
Well, I didn’t choose a caesarian, both times I had them on medical advice, but I must say I thought they were great, and i would recommend them to anyone. if I was going to have another child (an unlikely eventuallity at my age) I would opt for a caesarian without hesitation.
I don’t “hate” these women but I don’t understand why they would elect to have what constitutes major abdominal surgery. I would rather lose my “sex appeal” than have an obvious scar across my belly, just like Britney Spears did when those crotch shot photos of her were published in the tabloids and appeared all over the Internet.
