In my case, women (which makes it feel so much worse). But then again there weren’t many men on call that night (doctors or nurses). The one male nurse that I had during my c-section was really gentle and kind. And there were many nurses and midwives who helped out that were also great. Unfortunately, a few bad apples…

Are you an angel sent from heaven? YESSSS!

Yep, been there. I had an emergency c-section and afterwards, a nurse VERY FORCEFULLY applied pressure to my abdomen (some kind of check? I don’t know, I was out of it.) It was so painful.

You can’t ask politely. That doesn’t work. You need to be like, “Get the fuck out,” and MEAN IT, with the conviction of your entire being. None of this “please” shit. Believe me, as a person who has dealt with spirits my whole life, this is the only thing that works.

You are doing an amazing job, momma!
