This is what pisses me off about Americans and privilege

Imagine being so privileged

Imagine having access to healthcare for free. Access to strong pain medication. you don’t have to pay before going you just go and deliver a baby for free. until you get the bill, and technically you really don’t even have to pay it.

the only repercussion of not paying your bill is it affecting your credit. And actually you can pay as little as $10 a month to collections for it not to affect your credit if you call billing and work something out


And then stupid ass Americans go and do stupid shit like go have their baby in a pool of water at home because it’s “natural” aka now The next trend of what people are doing and posting on social media for something to talk about.

A nurse and I were discussing this at work and we were talking about how stupid and ignorant this is . Because imagine if the mother or the baby have some sort of an issue and they’re not at the hospital to immediately address it and they die 🤷‍♂️

I had a natural birth at home
So I can post some cute pictures and an inspirational post for Instagram

Yeah, I'm not a woman, so it's not my lane, but I don't like pain she to being a wuss. If I was a woman, I'd take anaesthesia and a C section please.

@basilfawlty89 csection has horrible recovery in comparison to vaginal delivery. It’s a major surgery

@Elessar I watched a video on YouTube of a woman who was telling about this happening to her, that she felt the whole thing. She was awake with the epidural, then started screaming so they knocked her out… but she felt the whole thing still and couldn’t do anything about it

@WaryWitchWandering I had a friend who told me this happened to her she said it was extremely traumatizing because she felt everything except she couldn’t tell them she was awake

@DeluxedEdition this woman said the same… she had terrible PTSD and recurring nightmares/daymares about it
