[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thread history is here for all to see. You know perfectly well there was a PP who derailed the thread with talk of VBAC, and someone who chimed in about how all pelvic floor problems are from vaginal birth, which others took issue with.

Happens all the time. You're in the wrong place if you think DCUM posters are going to color within the lines.

And yeah, sounds like there are some folks who take issue with "tell me why a c-section's better" because it WASN'T for them. Those stories matter, too. Maybe the OP will get a fuller accounting of the good AND the bad so she can try to improve on the experience for herself and her baby. I saw some great nuggets of wisdom in this thread for any woman ever facing a c-section. If you only ever hear the positive stories then you're no better than the ones who actually are pushing an agenda - my ___ birth was all rainbows and puppy dogs! is not an authentic or helpful exercise.[/quote]

So you object to women who have had bad vaginal birth experiences posting on this thread and you want to discredit them, but you think it's fine for women with bad C-section experiences to post? Also, nobody said that all pelvic floor injuries were from vaginal birth. Honestly, your dismissiveness and shaming of women who have had birth injuries is horrid. No wonder those poor women can't get good healthcare.

You are showing your true colors. [/quote]

In haven't posted on this thread in a couple of days FWIW and haven't been engaging in the back and forth here.

But I mean. Let's say someone gets diagnosed with late stage renal disease and is informed that they can't eat meat anymore. So they ask a few friends if they have any experience with vegetarianism. Renal disease guy had to follow a restrictive diet once in their past and it was really difficult and messed with their head and caused some depression and they're nervous.

So a few friends start talking about positive experiences, recommend some vegetarian restaurants, are generally encouraging. One other friend talks about how they might be in the same position and are wrestling with the choice of whether to go full vegetarian for the same reasons renal disease guy is worried. Then the last friend goes on a rant about how it's impossible to get all the nutrition you need on a vegetarian diet. Plus it makes being friends and going to meals so difficult and most people who do it just eat macaroni and cheese and aren't even healthy.

That last friend is a d*ck.[/quote]

[b]This is spot on.[/b] Unfortunately. I hope at least that OP got some comfort from the positive C-section stories.[/quote]

No, it's an incredibly poor analogy.  But I hope that the OP got some comfort from positive C-section stories, too.  It sounds like she has every reason to be optimistic that the procedure will go smoothly and she'll recover well.  It's wonderful to have that option.[/quote]
