I'm Mom Enough.
Medically necessary scheduled c-section? Check.
Baby in nursery at hospital so I could recover? Check.
Formula fed? Check.
Baby in own bed in own room from day one? Check.
I was mom enough to make my own decisions about what was best for our family.
The kicker for me was when a woman online (Catholic and militantly quiverfull) told me she was SURE I could have naturally delivered. Posted all kinds of research about why I could have delivered. Right. And you've examined me and my 97th percentile baby's head how many times compared to my doctor?
Women can be absolutely ridiculous about this stuff. They have WAY too much of their identity wrapped up in these choices.
And I think putting that child on the cover is child abuse, pure and simple. It's appalling.
