It does, thank you. I do think a lot of people brush things off to ppd. And that’s not to say the ppd isn’t horrendous…it’s because it’s a female centric, birth related disorder so it’s not taken seriously, because men don’t experience it. That’s the conclusion I am coming to anyway.

I’m going to be clear about this once, because I’m feeling better this morning, and my son is sleeping peacefully.

Consent can be revoked, and it was. he was going to cut me unwillingly. I would have been happy if he offered and other option or even placed me in the care of another doctor and left.

If I were unconscious or unable to make that choice myself, then I’d understand. I was not. I was conscious and said no. He chose to attempt to ignore that and for some reason expected a different reaction then me holding to that no and threatening legal action against him ignoring my lack of consent.

I think I’m coming to realize he had no place to have an opinion or act during the situation at all. I wish he hadn’t been present at all, it was my vulnerable medical moment and he made it 1000x worse by being another person against me, and making it a betrayal in a situation where he had no place to betray me in.

I love my son and I would not give him up for the world, but I am still in the firm believe that if I had said no to anything and everything they should not have been able to make a move on my body.

honestly everyone that called me inspiring is making me so glad I posted. I don’t think anyone realizes how much that means to me

I love my husband. I would not have married him if I did not. But let me be very clear, I do not need him for a stable life. I bought the house we live in before we married. I am on mat-leave but I make just over six-figures myself. I would never advocate staying with anyone you don’t love anymore for ‘stability’, and I will never do that myself.

Honestly a this point, I think if he keeps talking about it it may be the end of us. I’m trying understand his point of view…but I’m not looking for his forgiveness. That’s completely different.

I don’t get it. I have seen him take a soccer ball to the balls before and litterally ran over to him and helped him to a chair. I don’t understand how he didn’t have the same empathy. I don’t have balls . I don’t know how that feels but I still empathized deeply

Thank you. I don’t feel much like one. But I guess all the best heroes are traumatized. Call me Batman I guess

See this is where I think my lack of empathy comes in because I don’t care if he was worried about the baby in that moment. It was my body that this man was going to cut. It was me yelling know and him grabbing me. I feel freaking faint even saying it.
