Didn’t know where else to post this so I figured I’d post here as some might appreciate it.
Wife and I just got home yesterday from the hospital after giving birth to our first child, a healthy girl!
The hospital staff was very respectful for our wishes to deny vaccines, Vit K, antibiotic eye cream, etc. my wife wanted to give birth as natural as possible. Unfortunately my wife just wasn’t dilating enough,and the nurses, midwife, and doula spent soooo much time and effort trying different positions and stretches, rather than pushing for epidural + Pitocin.
Unfortunately we did need a c-section, as too much time had passed and infection was becoming a possibility, but I figured it would be worth sharing that not all health professionals are lost to “woke” culture!
Was a great breath of fresh air as we were expecting doctors to come in and give us “the talk”.
Right yes I wouldn't have considered it ill will or especially not woke in any way. Just something that turned out not to work for our situation. I imagine pitosin has been helpful for some.... but only in cases where the dilation is able to progress as quickly as the contractions will..
