Right!!! I watched that film and it was truly an eye opener. I wanted to call her so bad and say “STOP” don’t let them do it!!! But I felt I would have been out of line and doing too much. Ughhh it’s just so frustrating knowing they tell laboring mothers these tales to get their way. That’s why so many women feel they can’t birth naturally now because it’s getting less common to do it that way. I sure wish she would have been able to get a midwife.

What? That’s crazy how they did your SIL!!! 😳 I know of a couple that went through the same thing you experienced. They were told the baby’s heart rate was dropping and they needed to do an “emergency” c-section for his safety. The couple went with their gut instinct that their baby was okay and the mother needed to have him naturally. Their baby came out strong and healthy as ever.

I’m so sad my friend didn’t get the birth she wanted and prepared for. I feel like she was robbed of a miracle.
