Bad parenting advice administered via Facebook via a "friend" you haven't see since you wore Buster Browns and Tuffskins should be taken with a grain of salt

Kaileighah..is that name for real? one of Jagger's table mates is named kylyeigh pronounced kylie. yeah. awesome. not that a mom named Esme with a kid named Jagger has room to talk, but come on!
No, I just made it up. But! There are so many weird over-spelled names now, it hurts my brain to think of those poor kids learning to spell and write their names!
I really do like to see how many letters I can cram into a name, for fun. When we were naming Elias I remember sending Ryan and email and I was like: Eeylieyuhzzs? Ealliyuss? Eilayuhss?
I think the point of all this is to say "hey... lets try to spread the word" not chastise. And by "spread the word" I don't mean on facebook to people who are nearly strangers. Only about 1/3 of my FB list is semi-close to me to where I would confront them if I thought they might be making the wrong choice...
that being said, I agree... I am a little paranoid.. haha. I had 2 csections and one induction & we circ'd our son @ my husbands request. Not proud of this. I felt bullied into the c-sections/induction. I should have researched it all more before having kids/choosing an obgyn. but I didn't, and its done, and I can't change the past. If someone wants to judge me for it, then they are just aholes. Cause really? Who are they to judge? Why be an asshole to someone who can't change the past?
BUT ... I have learned a lot from just being here on LJ. One of those things is that I learned when to speak up and when to leave it alone.
I agree so much, there is so much that I would never know if it wasn't for the great community of mamas here on the internet.
I didn't question ANYTHING with Owen's birth, I can honestly say that I never considered HOW he would leave my body until I checked in to the hospital!
You know, I'm not really shy about how much I hate planned c-sections and "I don't want to ruin my boobs" formula feeders. I doubt that was the case for you.
I wish there was more mama education in the OBGYN part of pregnancy. I don't know how pregnancy and birthing turned into this big medical/artificial thing, it really bums me out.

Hahaha.
Reading this makes me paranoid that you probably think I'm a terrible parent for having a c-section and not breastfeeding, though. =\
