As a birth professional, I have noticed something interesting: the majority of women who have given birth, believe they are a "birth professional" simply because they have had a baby, even if it was with medication or a c-section. They "had to be induced" because... They "had to have a c-section" because... Most of the time, those reasons are totally bogus. But they think they really know about it because they have a child. It makes my profession much more difficult. The "student" is often not teachable. Just an observation...
Just because I drive a car doesn't mean that I understand how it works, how to fix it, or how to make it run better.
