She wrote, “Number FIVE comin in hot and we are here for it. 11 weeks 2 days and counting.” On December 8, she posted that she would be giving birth through a cesarean section for the fifth time and told her followers:
YOU are no less a mother if you needed emergency medical intervention, had a planned c-section, or an epidural. You aren’t a ‘better’ mother if you had a home birth or an unmedicated vaginal birth.
It’s not a competition. There aren’t awards handed out for homebirths or all-natural births. If you’ve been blessed with that, then that is incredible. Truly!! But if you haven’t, please know and believe you have STILL BEEN BLESSED.
