I have several questions I would love to ask but I am scared to post anything about my puppy because all anyone wants to do is judge here it seems like. Vet bills will be expensive and times will be stressfull but if the vet said it was ok then I am sure that not one person passing judegment has a vet degree on here?? Just saying. I dont normally post on to much but this one caught me a little off guard. I know humans are different than dogs but like I said, my dr told me I could not deliver natural because I was really tiny too but 9 years later my daughter is a beautiful healthy little lady. |
You are very lucky you had a positive outcome when you went against medical advice. Just bc you had a positive outcome does not mean all will - that is why the advice was given to you not to try childbirth.
I do not personally know all factors that were considered when giving you that advice; however, I have worked in the medical field for years, have education and professional licensures in it. I have personally worked on young women who went against medical advice and got pregnant when it was not advised due to higher risks associated w certain medical conditions. Their outcomes were not positive. It still haunts me to this day the look of fear on their faces as they realized their decision to go against medical advice was going to cost them their lives. We all make bad decisions at times. It was hard to watch a beautiful, vibrant, young person pay that large a price for theirs.
Please do not encourage others to fly in the face of medical advice. I am glad you are one of the few who is alive and well, as well as your child. Not all are so fortunate.
