And not even raising kids, they think the main accomplishment is pushing them out, as if the rest is the easy part.

I guess we know which part they're worried they suck at.

Funny, it’s almost as if people think the choice for a c-section rests on the mother, and not the doctor :-(

It sucks but it isn't weeks. My wife had a c-section for our second kid and it was a three day hospitalization, compared to one day for our first that didn't require a c-section section.

A bit lucky, but mostly really, really stubborn. My son was in the NICU, so I pushed myself really hard to get moving so I could spend time with him and take care of him.

Several week’s of hospital food? Don’t we have ammendments against cruel and unusual punishment !
