What really continues to astonish me is how many women are instinctively distrustful of the mere concept of a non-medicalized birth.

Do you know that every single female friend I have who has a child...has had a caesarian!? That's sickening. One of the cases was one of those "white knight-save the child" instances. Not only was the procedure unnecessary, but there was a mistake with the epidural and the mother began leaking cerebrospinal fluid.

*facepalms* Lets not even go into the problems she subsequently had successfully breastfeeding...or the vast amounts of guilt she heaped on herself because of it.
