I balance how I say things where I think it might come across better by including or mentioning my DD1's scheduled c/s, which was on my ob's advice. It also reminds me how far I've come and therefore how much becoming a parent might alter others' viewpoints, even years down the track (it took about four years for me to think of homebirth second time around).

I was talking about bfing with my sister the other day and I said I thought it was especially important for babies like my DD1 and her DD who were born by c/s and missed out on the healthy bacteria in the birth canal.

If you are presenting a gentle, natural approach to birth and parenting, I think it's best done in a gentle manner. People who avoid it or don't want to know about my experience usually have their own hangups and I can't help but feel sorry for them.
