Love this! I’m a c section mama I’ve given birth to two beautiful boys and my youngest son who is going to be 3 In August, his name is Camren also! Yes my c section was unexpected with my oldest son but that c section saved his life. I felt guilt for a long time because I wanted to have him natural..had a midwife and everything but things didn’t pan out. However, I’m grateful because he is 5 years old now and healthy. Thanks for sharing!

Pre-eclampsia mama here, and representin' 🖐! The most scariest and painful procedure I've ever had to endure...it was worth it, but I don't think most people know what a cesarean section consists of.... it's major surgery. Physically it was hard getting around, thank God daddy was there to help. Emotionally it was draining and depressing, not being able to do for myself like I always did... my daughter is now two and a half years old and she is worth all the pain, tears, and blood, that I've been through with the C-section Thank you for making this video!

I needed to hear this 2.5 years later! No one really acknowledges the recovery is actually more traumatic than natural birth. We're definitely warrior's 🙏🏽

I had a c-section when i had my son ezale took a lot out me. Most painful thing i went through

[@MegaCassie83]

Wow I never knew. I had to have a c-section due to preeclampsia. I came to realization that my baby is now almost 14.

[@kizgreen332]

I 6 beatuiful babies I didn't have a C-section. But I heard the stories and I know it's real. I praise those woman. They are strong.

Great topic... Let me share my experience of having a two C-sections. I had to have one my first one because my daughter was coming extremely preemie and she was coming breach, I was four and a half days away from hitting my five months of pregnancy. Recovery wasn't bad at all. #2 worst pregnancy experience ever. Son came 2 1/2 months early. Loved the hospital but the doctor was somewhat inexperienced in my opinion. The epidural experience was horrible and I dang near choked on my own vomit because the nurse wasn't paying attention to me. Fwd to my healing process... She (the doctor) messed up my cut from my C-section which has caused me so many complications over the years. She pulled my skin too tight, which has caused me to develop endometriosis. I'm in constant pain daily and it becomes worse when it's time for Aunt Flow to visit OMG. The only way to get rid of the type of endometriosis I have is to have a hysterectomy, which I refuse to do because of my age. I don't wish this on anyone. They're doing way to many C-sections. There was just a big news story in my city about this a month ago. Ladies to all who've had a C-section please keep an eye out for the symptoms of endometriosis. Tell your gynecologist ASAP.

Thanks for sharing! Love your music btw😊..well to start I have 5 kids last 3 born by C-section.. first C-section was an emergency one..I had been in labor for over 12 hours (NMW) and loss a lot of blood,and my son was too big, so because she wasn't licensed to perform c-sections I had to wait 4 an Obgyn whom I didn't know come in to perform the surgery..the last two were scheduled by choice just but on their schedule..I chose so because I didn't want to have to go through what I had with the first one..not just the long hours of labor but the chance of having to receive another blood transfusion.. definitely have to take time to heal and not rush back to work when having one..

❤ thanks!❤ I had an emergency csection 4/23/19 due to preeclampsia that I feel just came outta nowhere, and it's been very overwhelming! I didnt want to do an all natural birth however I wasnt expecting to deliver my baby so soon and have it go the way it did. Overall, I'm healing and glad baby is here. Thanx for this. Much love💛

[@Ajoe_1953]

❤️💕thanks for sharing! You are very awesome! I'm due November!

[@lizxmere]

I had an unplanned C-section in December and that took alot of me.. I had preeclampsia also and there was no signs of me having it throughout my pregnancy, exactly like your story. I had a hard to breastfeeding, I felt like I failed, I felt like I wasn't strong enough. I felt so horrible physically and emotionally. But exactly like you, I am truly blessed to have my baby girl and I would do it all over again if I had to. I'm soooo happy I'm not the only woman who has felt exactly like me. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️

[@Luvanmusiq]

Melanieee! I haven’t had a c-section... or given birth 👀... but I always have to come thru when we see your gorg face. God bless you for your openness!

[@LizzyLuv80]

I had to have an emergency c- section with my youngest son and the doctor was old school so he left me with a scar from my belly button down😢. I had to stay in the hospital 2 weeks. When I had my daughter 4 years later hers was scheduled and I thought I was better prepared. Because of the way the first doctor cut me he couldn't pull the skin as tight as he wanted in fear that he would damage a nerve.

[@lenorbradley8549]

So my first child his heart rate started to go down after 17 hours. Last 2 babies it was health issues. I had 3 C-section. So now if I had anymore children one of us will die. which honestly make me sad. Even though I just gave birth to our daughter 3 months ago. I still wanted one more. But the reason is because I had 3 C-section it completely messed up my body. My ankles I'm still swollen. Which I am still trying to find out why.. my doctor said with my last one her fluid was low. And no one ever knew. I keep telling them I think I was having contractions.

[@teresabrown3506]

Kudos to you, Warrior Mom, and to all of the other C-section warriors out there. This is a great topic of conversation as we continue to bring light and understanding to women’s health issues.

[@patrecewright3365]

Omg!!! This is amazingly refreshing!!!

[@msgogetterwilson9454]

I had two emergency c sections in 2017 and 2018 and had two vaginal in 2000 and 2005. The c sections being 36 years old was by far extremely painful. I almost died . i wouldn't change that experience for nothing. It was something I didnt want but had to do.

[@crayton2004]

Wonderful video.Glad to know she and her son are good.

[@TJ-ww5tm]
