If you’re wanting me to lie to you and paint a picture of roses, bubbles and rainbows…..you won’t get that here.

Can some epidurals be exactly what you wanted. Sure.

But, the reality is that many people who plan for an epidural, s**t, even people who plan for an unmedicated birth, actually don’t plan.

Planning is not a request.

It’s an active process.

Have you planned for what you’ll do if and when you’re uncomfortable?

Contractions don’t care about your plans.

Contractions plan on getting your baby out of you.

Ready or not.

Like the IRS.

Stay ready so you don’t have to get ready.

What was your epidural like?

✦
That is one of the most common reasons as to why people mutilate their brand new baby boys.
✦
We are talking about altering a newborn’s ge****ls, a baby freshly born, who cannot consent, cannot understand, cannot object, so that his body resembles an adult man’s.
✦
Not for immediate medical necessity because something is wrong, but aesthetic similarity to another adult man.
✦
This makes me nauseous to think about.
✦
Because when you strip away the normalization, the hospital routine, the “it’s just what we do, you’re left with the fact that a tiny baby, born perfect, is going through the pain of being surgically changed to match someone else’s.
✦
If we said, “Let’s surgically alter a baby girl’s ge****ls so they match her mother’s,”
people would be horrified.
✦
They’d call it what it is!
✦
A violation, control, mutilation.
✦
But somehow, when it’s a baby boy,
the same logic gets a pass?
✦
So he looks like his dad?
✦
Say it out loud so you can see how your reasoning doesn’t hold up.
✦
Babies are not born needing to match anyone.
✦
Their bodies are already whole.
✦
And the moment we start justifying permanent, irreversible body changes based on what makes adults more comfortable, we have completely lost the plot.
✦
And we are not protecting our babies.
✦
We are changing their brain wiring, removing healthy, functioning organs, just so you can say they match another adult man’s body.
✦

Thank you for filming such an important documentary and allowing me to be included in this piece.

This documentary should drop next year for everyone to see.

It’s already won some awards!

Congratulations again, Jacinta.

This is a reminder that not all c-sections are traumatic.

Many people still find joy, comfort and sheer bliss when meeting their babies.

Oxytocin is such a powerful hormone.

Meeting your baby can still feel like magic.

Like relief and everything in your body exhaling at once.

Love still lands.

Birth doesn’t have just one story.

It has love and family.

-Love,
Flor Cruz

Some people labored for hours and ended up with an emergency c-section.

Through the contractions and exhaustion.

Through the moment where you think it’s alsmost time to push.

And then suddenly, in an instant, everything changed.

The room shifted.
Voices got louder.
Movements got faster.

Suddenly, your body, your birth, is no longer leading.

Survival is.

No one prepares you for the moment your plan disappears and decisions are made around you.

No one tells you what it feels like to be awake
while your body is opened.

Not pain. Not exactly.

But pressure. Pulling. Hands inside a body that was just… laboring.

And then your baby cries.

And somehow, in the same moment, you are born into motherhood and surgery.

But what they really don’t talk about?

After.

The shaking you can’t control.
The numbness that lingers too long.
The burning when feeling comes back.

Trying to sit up or stand feels impossible.

Trying to care for a newborn while your body is trying to close a wound that should have never been minimized.

And still, you hold your baby.

You learn their face.

And you show up.

You mother through it.

So let’s be clear about all of this if you ever doubted yourself.

You didn’t take the easy way out.

You went through labor, surgery, and recovery.

All in one birth.

And if no one has ever told you this…

That wasn’t weakness.

That was survival, strength, and doing the unthinkable
while staying awake for it.

I see you.

Lina Medina is the youngest person in the world to give birth.

She was just 5 years old.

Not “almost six.”

Not “early puberty.”

Five.

In 1939, in a small village in Peru, Lina’s parents brought her to the hospital because her abdomen was growing.

They thought it was a tumor.

Instead, doctors discovered something that would shock the world.

She was 7 months pregnant.

Her body had already begun puberty

Lina had a rare condition called precocious puberty.

She reportedly got her first period at 2½ years old.

By age 5, her body had developed enough to sustain a pregnancy

And her body had already been pushed into a reproductive role.

Doctors performed a C-section because her pelvis was too small for va**nal birth.

On May 14, 1939, she gave birth to a baby boy.

He weighed about 6 pounds.

They named him Gerardo, after the doctor who delivered him.

The part people don’t want to sit with….

For a 5-year-old to be pregnant, there is only one truth…a man did this to her.

Her father was arrested but later released due to lack of evidence.

The identity of the perpetrator was never confirmed.

No justice or answers.

Lina survived the surgery and her son was raised believing she was his sister for years.

He eventually learned the truth and died at age 40 from bone disease.

Lina herself lived a quiet life, largely out of the public eye.

She later married and had another child.

Why does this story matter?

Because people love to use rare cases like this to make arguments about bodies, biology, or policy…

…but they skip the truth at the center:

This was not a miracle or a curiosity.

This was violence.

A child’s body was forced into something it was never meant to carry.

Some bodies can do incredible things.

That does not mean they should have to.

⚠️Educational medical content⚠️

Every embryo begins as a cluster of rapidly dividing cells, following a blueprint that is incredibly precise… and sometimes, that blueprint changes.

What you’re seeing here is a spontaneous abortion at 14 weeks involving conjoined twins.

Conjoined twins occur when a single fertilized egg begins to split, like identical twins, but the separation is incomplete.

This happens very early in development, typically between days 13–15 after fertilization.

Instead of forming two fully separate bodies, the twins remain physically connected—often sharing organs, blood supply, or vital structures.

♥️ Conjoined twins are rare: about 1 in 50,000–200,000 births
♥️ Many do not survive pregnancy
♥️ Many losses occur in the first or second trimester, like this one
♥️ This is not something caused by anything a parent did or didn’t do

We often talk about pregnancy as if it’s simple.

As if it always follows a straight line from conception to birth.

But the reality is that human development is complex, delicate, and deeply variable.

Loss is not always preventable.

And not all pregnancies are capable of continuing.

Images like this are not here for shock.

They are here to educate, to witness, and to honor the reality of early human development.

Behind every image like this, there is a story, and often, a family navigating something unimaginable.

“The husband stitch” isn’t a joke.

It’s violence.

The so-called “husband stitch”,(adding an extra stitch after tearing or episiotomy to “tighten” the va**na), was never about healing.

It was about male pleasure.

It was about a system that has long treated women’s bodies as something to be managed, modified, and optimized… not for her comfort, not for her recovery, but for someone else’s satisfaction.

And yes, this has been done without consent.

This is what patriarchal medicine looks like in real time:
- A woman gives birth, her body stretched, opened, powerful, raw
- She is stitched back together…
- And someone decides to make her smaller
- Not because she needs it
- But because a man might want it

At one of the most vulnerable moments of her life, her body becomes a site of casual modification for male pleasure.

Not evidence-based. Not medically necessary. Not ethical.

And here’s what makes it worse: Many women didn’t even know it happened to them.

They just knew that postpartum s*x became painful.

That something felt off.

That their healing didn’t feel like healing at all.

Because no one told them.

This is why language like “just a stitch” is so dangerous.

Because it minimizes what is actually: a violation of bodily autonomy.

This isn’t about one rogue provider.

This is about a culture that has normalized women’s pain as acceptable.

Normalized women’s bodies as adjustable and women’s consent as optional.

Birth is not a moment to “fix” women.

It is not an opportunity to make them more desirable.

It is not a place for patriarchal preferences to sneak in under the guise of care.

If it’s not for her healing, not evidence-based, and not explicitly consented to, it should not be happening.

Women deserve to be supported through recovery, not for someone else’s pleasure.
