C sections have a higher risk of this, actually. Higher risk of bleeding, blood clots, infection etc.

It's all about convenience it seems. And medical intervention is far more profitable. Women are capable & have had babies for hundreds of thousands of years without being cut open. Not saying isn't sometimes necessary. Just overused.

Can someone explain how, what evidence is there to support the claim that C-sections raise the chance of obesity and autoimmune diseases later in life in babies? What kind of study was done? It sounds so tale-like to scare women into not doing a C-section.
-
There are studies that explain this. It has to do with the infants microbiome. It is composed of completely different bacteria w/vaginal birth versus csection. This affects health in many ways. Some hospitals are now offering “vaginal seeding” to moms who have to undergo csection

How come in Star Trek they still deliver babies when they coulda just used the transporter and beamed that little rugrat out of there?

Oh no! Women deciding what to do with their bodies and how they want their babies delivered. What monsters. They should push watermelons out their golf ball-sized vaginas like God intended!

I had a C-Section in 1993. Neither I or my 25 year old daughter might be here if I didn’t have one.

Something is very wrong when the thing our bodies were meant to do is now being done 21% of the time through ELECTIVE surgery. I had two c-sections out of necessity, so I’m not anti c-section, but c’mon. Our bodies are literally made to have babies-physiologically speaking.

Why does it matter how a baby is birthed? The end result is the same, so who cares how it’s achieved?

That’s because hospitals charge up to 3 times more because it’s invasive surgery versus a normal delivery.

I haven't listened to this yet, but I'm going to step out on a limb, having had a few C-sections myself-- it's way easier and a lot less voodoo than pushing a watermelon out. Oh, with C-sections on the rise, tummy tucks ought to be covered by most health insurance. they aren't.
-
Why should you get a tummy tuck with insurance just because you were cut open instead of pushed out the baby?
-
Maybe do a little research into what it does. It weakens the abdominal wall, the muscles separate, you ca n't stand up straight, back problems set in, in a number of years. I don't mean liposuction, I just mean, reattach the muscles. Look it up. You'll see.

'You're going to pay me more [to do a C-section], you're not going to sue me and I'll be done in a hour,' So... basically profiteering.

Fixes: Watchful waiting. CNMs. CMs. Collaborative care. No routine EFM (does nothing but increase c-sections; is unethical). OBGYN residents should train with midwives to understand physiological birth. Read the dozens of books about the broken culture of birth in America.
