Another nine (9) months of pregnancy wasted!
Another Obstetric calamity!
Another woman brought in dead (BID) this evening…
She has been in labour for hours (obstructed labour), lost the baby and bled to death.
A caesarean section (CS) could have sufficed. Someone out there just lost a wife, sister and mother.
Who lied to us? Who brainwashed us? That you are not a woman, if you deliver through a CS.
With only a (Pfannenstiel) scar left by CS, a beautiful battle scar as proof which fades as time rolls by.
You were told by pastors to have faith and to wait patiently for a miraculous ‘Hebrew’ birth despite the doctors’ advice, quick to forget the God given gift of medical science.
My Dear, you are a Hebrew woman regardless of your route of delivery.
A ‘normal’ delivery is one with a healthy mother and baby, not defined by an SVD or CS.
Dont allow any man, woman, inlaw or society pressurize you.
That ignorant husband will most likely move on with his life in few months.
Disallow religion, society, culture, or a man deceive or fool you.
You need to stay alive first!
A baby boy or baby girl given birth to, through CS or SVD is the same.
You would not be rewarded in heaven for not undergoing a CS.
Please men, let’s keep our woman alive.
Let’s end Maternal mortality.🙏🙏🙏
