Please husbands are asked to sign the consent form for legal purposes and not as a death sentence okay, although your write up stated that most people looks at it as a death sentence. Surgery's are based on 50/50 chances and not a sure procedure no matter the expert carrying out the procedure. Good write up about how culture and religion has created a big problem on deciding to chose C-section as a means of giving birth. C-section is not evil neither will it take away your pride as a woman. Please C-section is a safe procedure to undergo for any pregnant woman that has been diagnosed of it and it doesn't have any bad impression on anyone. If C-section is the only option for you to deliver your baby please go for it and never allow any religion or culture to send you to your early grave. It's high time people become aware that C-section is not a dead sentence. C-section does not prevent you from caring for your baby well. Your baby will be cared for very well and still get enough breast milk as possible. Please husbands are advised to support their wives during this period by encouraging them to go for it. Thank you for this message once again. May God bless you richly 🙌🙌🙌

Hello, thanks for reading through my post. It is a shame that a lot of people see C-section as if it is a bad idea or a stigma especially in religious places. I was passing through a church sometimes last week, and I guess the women were having special prayers for pregnant women. They prayer made was for them to cancel every form of cesarean section during delivery. The clergy woman sounded like if they were told to have a CS, then they were signing up for a bad thing. This negative mindset needs to erased from the mind of people, especially Africans.
I have told as many people possible that before a medical practitioner would recommend a procedure, they would have weighed the pros and cons and were certain that it was a better option.
Most people are just being deceived by their respective religious leaders. Most times they forget to talk about serious matters affecting the world instead channel all attention on putting thoughts that are not good into people's mind. Please continue telling people about it. C-section is not a death sentence neither is it a stigma. Just like someone that has been diagnosed of amputation saying that he heard that they don't lay to rest people with amputated leg when they die at a better place in the community. Please it's high time we Africans start thinking of a better way to promote good health in the society and forget about ways of playing evil games in the society. Thank you
