“Do you want single or double layer suturing? Double takes longer to heal, but I recommend it, just in case you want a VBAC later. I know you were told you’d never get pregnant naturally but you never know.”- OB during pre-op meeting for medically necessary cesarean section of twins conceived by IUI. The mother opted for double suturing and had a successful VBAC 2 years later.

Gyn: If that’s uncomfortable, you’ll never have sex, and no kids.
Mother: There’s a difference between sex, and having a layer of my cervix removed. I also already have a child.
Gyn: You adopted?
Mother: No. Gave birth the old fashioned way – vaginally, vacuum assistance, after 18 and a half hours in labour, four days before the due date…
Gyn: There’s no way. I see no proof of that. So, if you already have a family, why are you here? You have a healthy vagina, and you can conceive. You’re wasting my time, when I could be helping a woman who really wants to be pregnant.
Mother: Please remove things from my vagina now. I need to leave. You didn’t even take a moment to read the referral from my doctor, nor my basic history, did you? I was referred here because I just recently had a second trimester miscarriage of TWINS, don’t tell me I’m wasting your time, and assume that I do not wish to conceive.
Gyn: ….. Well, I am very busy you know…… Nice tattoo, by the way….
