My friend had a very traumatic delivery, but her husband is constantly pressuring her to have another baby

RANT

My friend had a high-risk pregnancy and had to rest all the time to avoid giving birth prematurely. She was scheduled for a C-section, but the doctors at the hospital ignored that and forced her to give birth vaginally (I don’t know how it works in the USA, but this is a very common practice in my country, and it’s fucking barbaric). She tore badly and almost bled to death. Her son was close to being permanently disabled, but the midwives saved him, and he’s fine. She was deeply traumatized for months after that birth and suffered from severe postpartum depression. If it weren’t for therapy and psychiatrists, I don’t know if she’d be here today. That was almost three years ago.

Anyway, do you know what her husband’s been doing all this time? He’s complaining that they don’t have enough sex and that his needs aren’t being met, and he’s constantly pressuring her to have another baby because he wants at least three. Not to mention that after the birth, he left her alone in the hospital.

I got inspired to write this post because I just had a conversation with her, and she said she’d rather get cancer than be pregnant again. Absolutely fucked up.
