As expected, the freebirthing mother was snidely portrayed as irresponsible and selfish (Tara Brown: "And so you get to clean up the mess (after homebirths go wrong)" OB "Well, yesss" *insert condescending nodding*)

The elective caesarean mothers were portrayed as making nothing more than a "lifestyle choice" based mostly on their fear of a floppy vagina.

The risks of caesarean birth with no medical indication were pretty much glossed over.

GAH that sucked.
