A female friend once remarked to me that giving birth makes as much sense as exiting your car by crawling out through the exhaust pipe.
My sister’s first pregnancy was high-risk and she needed a c-section. She went on to get pregnant twice more. When I asked her why take the risk, she told me “because I get a kid out of it”. 🤷♀️
