yep. i understand the fear of hospital births, doctors don’t always listen… but if something goes wrong at least you’re already in the hospital

like i truly don’t understand the point… the reasoning is usually to have the least medical intervention possible which i can understand to an extent but if something goes extremely wrong and you need professional medical intervention you’re screwed. this might sound harsh but it’s the truth.
