Ricki Lake opens our eyes
Everyone knows that ladkiddo is the one who writes about breastfeeding and co-sleeping and all other latent hippie ideas. Now we’re talking about C-Section rates in this country and depriving women of the rite of passage that natural birthing is. Ricki Lake brings us a killer documentary addressing this sad fact and it will be screened locally. I will talk more about this tomorrow, but suffice it to say:

I’m not available, but would be interested to see it.
However, I had a c-section b/c the baby was breach and I’ll be honest - it was fantastic. I’m not sad to have missed out on labor at all. I also know someone who tried a vaginal after a c-section and ended up with a burst uterus. So, I’m probably done anyway, but if I do have any more, it’s a c-section all the way for me
Even Caesar was “untimely ripped.”
Looks like it is 1965 medically as well as politically here in Rochester.
Why even go near a hospital if you’re not sick?
Why, indeed? Check out Ina May.
