This!!! There is NOTHING gentle about a c section!! Your abdomen is being opened layer by layer, nothing gentle about it, maybe its a manifestation thing to use certain words
I bet she’s a nightmare patientThis. Every single appointment she comes out telling us this and it’s weird. She’s a pathological bullshitter imo. I wish her and the baby a healthy delivery. But she needs to stop talking like this, it’s so arrogant and self aggrandising! I’ve said it a million times on here but Who. Does. She. Think. She. Is?! Grace really feels owed by everything and everyone.
Like I said, I realise it's a non issue lol but not on my phone (Android). Unless I open the box to reply to a story (which Grace has disabled) I can't stop the story from moving on to the next one.
Another blogger from Grace's era, Nikki's secret recently gave birth and everything was fine for her until the last minute and she had to do an emergency c section, which seems to already be a consideration for Grace.
She has it in her head this perfect birth, she’s deluded. I had a planned c section and even though it was relatively chilled it was definitely NOT gentle. I’m surprised the doctors haven’t firmly advised that she have a c section due to her history and weight.
I'm pretty sure they have and she's dismissed it, so now they're just waiting for the need for one so they can say, well, we tried VBAC, but as we noted a c-section has now become necessary. I'm sure they know that at the point they say it has become medically necessary, that then safe delivery becomes the mother's priority.
I imagine it's very different in London and the South East and the NHS is in a very different state now, but when I gave birth at a hospital in the North East all the rooms were private. Naively I didn't think it could be otherwise until I spoke to mums in other hospital trusts!Fun fact, you can pay for a private room on the NHS when giving birth & it’s not too expensive (I wish I’d known when I had my kids) that’s probably what she’s done but being the precious big princess she is she’s got to make out it was given to her because she’s just so important, you’d only ever be given a private room for free under special circumstances such as ill health, health risks etc, so she’s either not as healthy as she keeps making out or she paid for the private room, she isn’t this special unique Wonder Woman like she keeps implying
Yes!!! Also it’s totally pig ignorant to privileges or lack thereof, like did mum x have a bad birth because she went into it with
bad vibes or was it because she’s a black woman x times more likely to die in childbirth as HCPs assume she’s over reacting when voicing her pain and concerns? It’s such a dangerous POV but SO prevalent in young millennials and gen z, I’m constantly correcting my sister for saying it because how tf can you manifest urself out of systemic discrimination?!Oh bless you, it felt tit at the time but all fine a few years on. Unless I should milk it and go on about how I [nearly] DIED in the hopes of getting VIP treatment next time?Yes!!! Also it’s totally pig ignorant to privileges or lack thereof, like did mum x have a bad birth because she went into it with
Also sorry to hear about your negative birth experience my love.
Yes. You absolutely should. I hope you make millions darling
I live in south London & we get a private room for giving birth but as soon as you’ve given birth you’re put into a room with about 5 other women & babies with only a curtain to divide you, I can’t fault Grace for paying for a private room if she chose to, I just don’t understand why she is never honest, she could either be making women aware that they can pay for a private room or if it’s because she’s unwell she could be advocating for the NHS and how they’re taking her health seriously and putting in measures to make sure her and her baby are safe! I’ve always found Grace odd, I’m a bigger woman (size 14-16) and the way she’s so adamant she needs to be the picture of health is just weird to me, I never had health issues in my pregnancies but I was warned of the risk of pre-eclampsia due to my weight & it was something I definitely was concerned about, I was lucky my weight didn’t affect my health & I had happy healthy pregnancies & births but everything she does goes against advocating for bigger women, because when was the last time you saw a slim/healthy woman doing the most to prove she’s healthy in pregnancy? I was a big healthy woman in pregnancy and I didn’t feel the need to prove I’m healthy to anyone, it just screams insecurity, if you need to go above and beyond to prove to people you are healthy, you are probably not healthy! living a normal happy life speaks more for your health than what words you decide to spew on a daily basis!
Yes, it’s a popular saying. Like Black Girl Magic.
