  1. Why a C-Section?

    Wow, Fiona! So sorry to hear about this. I agree with us knowing our bodies better. Was this your first
  2. Why a C-Section?

    Sexuality involves giving and receiving pleasure....sex is the act. So I guess they aren't too far from being the same :) Maybe the poster you were responding to considers satisfaction/connection to...
  3. Why a C-Section?

    Hi! I agree with you! I have had some of the probs with my body you mentioned!! Well-written post and I couldn't have said it
  4. Why a C-Section?

    Who is this question directed at? I hope not at me. Yes, parenting is about sacrifices, definitely. For some women (not me here, okay) its not just the elasticity they lose, they lose their bladder...
  5. Why a C-Section?

    Karry, In my instance I had my first baby in July this yr via C-section. There was no point to letting me try labor since I was determined to have a very small pelvic outlet and my baby was also under...
  6. Why a C-Section?

    Again, maybe my c-section experience is in the minority! Because I truly and honestly don't feel like I missed out on any of the excitement/emotional aspects of the birth. I was on cloud 9!! It was...
  7. Why a C-Section?

    Ok. I didn't have a fear of childbirth, we thought we'd have him lady partslly all along. I went into the hospital for an NST at noon and was scheduled for a c/s at 330!! Talk about a shocker! I was...
  8. Why a C-Section?

    Good point!! The whole lady parts tearing part never scared me until I realized that we can tear upwards too (privy parts and urethra!). No thank you! I like having one hole to pee out of
  9. Why a C-Section?

    What about those of us who needed a c-section because the baby was in trouble? Regarding the "scar across the abdomen". Have you ever seen someone's c/s scar? Mine is almost completely faded away and...
  10. Why a C-Section?

    What is the opposite of an elective c-section? Mine wasn't elective because the baby under stress really overdue,
  11. Why a C-Section?

    FYI I do agree with what you are saying! But, for that sake of argument, what do you think about this: I work in oncology and we get 80 yr olds on Medi-cal (medicaid for california) getting the whole...
  12. Why a C-Section?

    Shoot, maybe i was one of the lucky ones! My urinary catheter was only in for about 8 hrs and they had me walking around after they pulled it out. I was having nausea, but no vomiting, no gas pains....
  13. Why a C-Section?

    It actually didn't scare me when she told me that. I was already scared for my baby's safety at that point to worry about myself. He was in trouble and needed to come out. But, if I were in her office...
  14. Why a C-Section?

    I think I totally understand what you are talking about. Even though my c/s was necessary...I was hugely relieved that the baby was delivered that way :) And especially after seeing how big he was! I...
  15. Why a C-Section?

    I had a c-section in July. I understood all the risks involved. But, in my instance it was safer for me and my son. I did not have severe pain afterwards either, I barely used the Vicodin I was...
  16. Rn/md

    Going BACK to med school....I never started off there. Nor did I want to be there. Nursing and med school are two different entities. I am not interested in being a doctor. I like not having to be...
  17. "Your servers today will be..." Opinions please!

    Hey, could I get your administrator's email address HAHAHA! I would totally have a bonfire with that stack of cards and would invite the administrator over to roast wienies on that open fire!! They...

  19. I've had the opposite experience with pts! I've had childless elderly who say they missed out on that, then I have the mother's whose children are their life (or they wished they would have had more)....
  20. Absolutely no offense taken! :) I can respect that those who don't have children are speaking from their own perspective. I was offering up my perspective since I have been on both sides....without...
  21. I loved your post! Got me steamy eyed! I love being a mother...more than I ever
  22. I just had my first child in July of this year. I think that people who are childless probably don't regret not having children....because they have no idea what they are missing. There is nothing...
  23. Wrote a doctor up!!!

    BINGO! I don't let my own husband talk to me disrespectfully....so you better believe I wouldn't put up with a dr's disrespectful talk! It's one thing to be venting to someone, but to downright start...

    It took me 11 months to get preggers after the pill...I was on

    Good for you in advocating for yourself and your patient!! I have only been an RN for over a year and had to write a doctor up TWICE due to the same issue...pain control! I work in oncology and most...
