Abstract:
In this article, I explore my own journey with delivering my first child via Caesarean section. I discuss the discourse in society surrounding childbirth and the stigma associated with giving birth via C-section, as well as the impacts that this discourse has for women whose births don't go according to plan and who end up requiring medical intervention.
