[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you hear yourselves? You criticize a poster for putting off pregnancy during the pandemic and now you're criticizing a poster for not putting off pregnancy during the pandemic?

IOW, every decision a woman makes is a bad one.  She's always wrong and it's always her fault.  [/quote]

Lol this is the person who had a third child “during Covid”. Thank you, and I agree with you.

I won’t even comment if our third was planned or not, because either way it wasn’t the child who made 2021 miserable-it was the Covid policies. I had my second child while in the same graduate program and was back on campus five days postpartum, so I have a direct comparison that validates the negative impact of Covid policies.

Moreover, was Covid “over” in 2021 (thus making getting pregnant in early 2021 not unreasonable to these people) or was Covid “not over” in 2021 (thus proving that the people dismissing the Covid effects in 2021 wrong)? Lol the woman hating women are like a meme at this point. [/quote]

You’re linking your PPD with delivering the baby in a mask? That is actually certifiable. [/quote]

You can thank my beloved OBGYN who was the one who pointed out the connection at my 6 week postpartum appointment. Lol if your next response to a random internet poster who had PPD is to attack to my OBGYN, I’m sure you’re a real favorite amongst your social circles. [/quote]

You’re the one that is making mountains out of molehills. I bet the people in your life roll their eyes every time you open your fat trap. [/quote]

DP. I also had to birth my third child with a mask and it was pretty stressful. My first 2 births went quickly and smoothly. My third birth, however, took a very long time. Over 24 hours and I do think the stress of constantly being made to mask when someone came in the room, and just generally treated much more coldly because my doctor was very extreme about COVID precautions did not help my body relax. Also, my husband had a cold at the time and I kept fearing they were going to kick him out because of the “No COVID symptoms” rule even though we had done a swab at home and he was negative. So every time he coughed I got scared the nurses would kick him out and I’d be in labor totally alone.

I then ended up with an infection from laboring so long that I was feverish and delirious. My BP and oxygen levels weren’t great so my doctor ended up having me take my mask off to wear an oxygen max and that is when my body finally relaxed.

I can’t help my body’s physiological response (and I was someone who diligently masked before getting vaccinated). But I shouldn’t be surprised that posters on here are all too quick to dismiss the experiences of birthing mothers. [/quote]

I've worn a. Oxygen mask and it was one mlion times worse than a paper mask!  [/quote]

I used the oxygen mask in 2008 and it was heaven. I loved it and wished I had that at home![/quote]
