think I have said it on the list before, but I believe that the right to chose a cs for no medical reason then it should be classed as cosmetic and thus be fully paid for by the woman.
I agree totally, Jo. How can it not be ‘cosmetic’ to be protecting a woman’s vagina from the ravages of natural birth? I know of a friend who is being made to wait for knee surgery because it is considered ‘cosmetic’. Go figure, hey? She has been on crutches for a year. I just can’t truly understand this current system.
Social elective c/sections are cosmetic. Does anyone not agree???

Too many Gods;
so many creeds,
Too many paths
that wind and
wind,
When just the art
of being kind
Is all the sad
world needs...
