Yeah, I just felt like I feel a lot.

And I don't know, three months in, I was like, I'm having a C-section.

And so when they told me I had to have a C-section, I wasn't surprised, and I went with the plan.

And I also tell women now, I say, listen...

Definitely, if you want to push, go for it.

I wish I could have done it.

But also, if the doctor tells you they have to cut, do it.

Because I've seen so many kids be so affected because women want to stick to their plan of I must push, I must push.

And I've seen kids come out unfortunate.

and even die because they didn't follow what the doctor said.

Because I heard about something called the ring of fire.

So, so anyway, so I was, I told the nurse that and she just was like, this is crazy talk, which may have sounded like crazy talk for me to tell him what to give her exactly, quote unquote, what I needed and how I needed it.

And then I started coughing so hard.

So all my stitches just like burst open because I couldn't breathe.

And so like my, I was holding a pillow on my stomach and I was just coughing because I was just like, I'm like, they're going to break.

They're going to break.

And I couldn't breathe.

So I was just coughing, coughing, coughing.

they broke and I had to have that redone.

I think I had like five surgeries and that, I don't know, I don't remember some of them.
