I am floored that docs are saying women should wait til 50 to get a mammogram, and that self exams are worthless and shouldnt even be taught to women?  Are you kidding me?  You know how many women have found breast cancer because of self exams????

 

On a better note, research shows that the majority of premature babies born in the USA are due to babies being taken too early ELECTIVELY...  which hopefully means more doctors and women will be educated to wait and let nature run its course like it SUPPOSED to.

...  interesting news this morning.

I agree! And  i totally wish that women could let their babies follow their own schedule for birth, all this inductioncsectioncastoroilshit gets me angry. I especially hate the castor oil...it can cause your uterus to contract without relaxing at all, wich will kill the baby. My kids come when they're ready

Thanks for being smart and strong!
