Elective c-section to avoid pain :-/

Spears pregnancy is 'mind-blowing' By Karen Thomas, USA TODAY
Wed Sep 7, 7:30 AM ET



In her first interview while pregnant, Britney Spears talks about
her pregnancy and the choice to put her career on hold.


In the October issue of Elle, Spears says that before she met (and
married four months later) Kevin Federline, she was "introverted.
Being an entertainer, especially starting at such a young age, you
long to please people and become what they want to see." Marriage and
motherhood, she says, are "going to help me not be influenced so
much."


Spears, 23, says she doesn't know the baby's sex (but has a feeling it
is a boy), and hopes to have a cesarean section. "I don't want to go
through the pain. My mom said giving birth was the most excruciating
thing she's ever gone through in her life."

All together now.... ARRRRGGGHHHHH!

Spears adds, "I've always known that I was going to have a baby one
day. But there's times when I get a little scared. It's mind-blowing
to have a child. "

Hmmmmm... and major abdominal surgery is a good choice? She will forever
have a scar and her abdominal muscles will need lots of time to recover.
She won't be escaping pain, just trading labour for recovery pain.
[Personally, I had labour *and* a c-section and the c-section recovery
was also quite painful...] My word this girl is not very smart, at all.
Chances are she won't be breastfeeding either.

In best Britney voice,

"Ewwww. No way! Someone told me once that breastfeeding hurts. No way
I'll do that!"

My aunt is friends with a lady who's a nurse in Arizona, and apparently
Brittney has been interviewing hospitals in that area to try to find a
place to deliver. I guess she wants to get out of the limelight, which
I can understand. According to my aunt's friend, one of their
requirements is that she not have a roommate, and that the rooms on
either side of hers be given to her staff (bodyguards and personal
assistants and whatnot). I guess she doesn't understand the difference
between "hospital" and "hotel." I would be ****ED if I was a patient
at the same time, and I had to double up because Princess Brittney was
taking up three rooms (or six beds, depending on how you look at it).

Most of the nurses in the hospital are terrified that she'll pick their
hospital. They don't want to deal with her. My aunt's friend is a bit
of a bulldog, though, she's pretty no-nonsense and has said, "Hey,
bring her on. I'll treat her like any other first time mother, and
like any other patient." I kind of hope that she does pick that
hospital, and that she does get my aunt's friend as a nurse, just so
that she can be treated like everyone else. She needs it.

You can take the girl out of the trash, but you can't take the trash
out of the girl, I guess.

Did you hear that she wants to design her own maternity line, because
she can't find anything "decent" (snort!) to wear? My response to that
was that none of her clothes covered her belly to begin with, and I
can't imagine why she can't just wear what she's always worn - bikini
tops and Daisy Dukes, if memory serves.

Heh. I could tell her about my experience with an evisceration,
hernia repair surgery and continued pain. She'd *never* get those
purty abs back.

Chances are she won't be breastfeeding either.

/sigh/
You're probably right.

whilst it would sh!t me too to be in the next bed to mrs federline, i can
see her point. can you imagine going through 3rd day babty blues, trying to
bf, lochia, all that gross stuff with the media trying every trick they can
to get in to see you? i feel a bit sorry for her in that regard. best of
lucky to baby federline, s/he is the one that is going to need it!

Oh yeah, I can just see her maternity line...big ugly halter top dresses and
cowboy boots. Shorts and tube tops and cowboy boots. Whatever she wore
this pregnancy, it hasn't been attractive. I'm sure she could have found
something better than what she ended up with, if she had any taste or class,
that is....meow!

Hmmm, I can understand her security and privacy concerns...not only do
paparazzi want those pictures, I can imagine crazed fans trying to steal the
baby. Seems like with her money, a home birth would make the most sense
though. If she was nervous about the "home" part of it, she can afford to
have an anesthesiologist and helicopter on standby. Couldn't do a C-section
most likely (although I bet Michael Jackson has an in-home OR he can lend
her), but if she just did vaginal birth she could have the best of both
worlds: at home privacy and comfort and access to medical personnel,
epidural, etc..
I haven't given birth yet, but the idea of C-section pain scares me way more
than vaginal birth pain!

My sister-in-law had twins: one vaginally and one by c-section. That's
just not fair.

I've had one vaginal birth and 2 sections and I'd take the vaginal
delivery over the c-section ANY day.
