"Of all countries in 2020, the United States possessed the highest infant mortality rate at 5.4 deaths per 1000 live births, which is markedly higher than the 1.6 deaths per 1000 live births in Norway, which has the the lowest mortality rate."
"More women are having children later in life and more women are entering pregnancy with chronic conditions such as hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. The rising number of Cesarean sections – a major surgery that is not always necessary – is also believed to be a contributor."
One should ask why so many young women suffer from life threatening chronic conditions. Does it have something to do with pharmaceuticals, vaccines, or the chemicals inundating the food supply.
And what is it about the culture that's causing women to defer childbirth to their late 30's or early 40's.
As far as "C sections" are concerned they're more medically profitable as well as expedient since the delivery can be planned down to the minute. Unfortunately, it results in a longer recovery for the mother.
"Most people stay in the hospital between two and three days. A full recovery can take between four and six weeks. Most providers recommend avoiding steps, lifting, exercise and other strenuous activities for several weeks."
- the mother was dead or dying, as an attempt to save the child for a state wishing to increase its population,
MEDICAL reasons when
- baby is positioned bottom or feet first (breech) and can't be turned,
- cervix (opening to the womb) is blocked by the placenta (placenta praevia),
- baby is lying sideways (transverse) and can't be turned by the doctor,
DIRECT MONETARY reasons because
- a Caesarean Section is more profitable for the hospital and professionals involved,
- can be planned to the minute (don't you dare ruining my weekend ...!!),
INTERCOURSE reasons
- female genital anatomy is unaltered by birth-giving, hence "same feel" ... and last-not-least
INDIRECT MONETARY reasons because
- Caesarean Section prevents the foetus from being imbibed with the micro-biome specific to the mother's vaginal environment, hence impeding the newborn's immune-system being primed for a life on a planet where bacteria and numerous pathogens are dominant.
It is obvious that BIG PHARMA silently promotes Caesarian Section, securing them millions of life-long patients and perfectly fraudulent, but legal wind-fall profits !!
The inhumanity of it all. How can such a fundamental event be viewed as wrong?
Mistaking organism with mechanism is a means to control the symptoms of an underlying fear. Where this comes from I don't know but it's been baked in for a long time.
Curious what led you to take on this topic? I sense authenticity in you...it triggers me to see David Graeber pedestaled...as a man. More of the same. IMO ought to be curious rather than experts on this topic. You may enjoy Ina May's guide to childbirth. I read it before having two home birth VBACs and it sealed my decision to go for it when I read her chapter on sphincter law. My husband was in medical school at the time. He was fully supportive. It was dissonant for him attending medicalized births having attended the birth/births of his own children at home with midwives, both of whom were excellent. For me, ideally I would have had the option of a birth center adjacent to an OR...a legally separate entity separated only be a glass bridge. But given the choice of hospital or home, I felt home was least risky based on both my research of relevant risks and my own intuitive self-knowing that I would invariably "fail" in a pressured setting hooked up to all the monitors, on the clock...with them erring on the side of go to C-section versus their fear of getting sued if you wait too long and have a bad outcome.
