Hate when I’m discussing childbirth/pregnancy anxiety with someone and they say “why are you scared your body’s designed for it”, like ok it still kills some women and it’s incredibly painful 😭

AND I just learned that women have been forced into a rushed delivery by societal norms and that's why women tear and have trauma. They're right, our bodies ARE designed to give birth, in a relaxed state, letting loose, BREATHING SLOW, and not pushing like how they tell you in a hospital. It's a whole thing. Women have been fucked since the beginning.
