I can never understand why complete strangers need to ask such personal questions. 'How did you give birth?' 'are you breast feeding?'

Sometimes I feel it comes down to simple courtesy and privacy. I haven't had a caesarian, but have heard of many of these comments that women are subject to, such as 'it's taking the easy way out' etc. I've heard many women who've always had to have caesars say that it makes them feel like less of a woman, or a failure in some way. Not on.

I really do think, when our time comes to get our little ones out, we do the best we can with what we've got. I just wish there was a book out there to help us mums handle comments like this lol
