Quotes by Emily Writes  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Make sure you subtly encourage the idea that a c-section or medicated birth or a birth with interventions is a lesser birth, so that the other mum knows she hasn’t reached the pinnacle of birthing. Because we all know that when children are at school, they separate out the kids by their type of birth, rank them, then the ones who had the most natural of births get the meet the queen.”
Emily Writes, Needs Adult Supervision

“You just love them. Love them till they’re full and you’re full, and love them more.”
Emily Writes, Needs Adult Supervision

“If you had a natural, drug-free, unmedicated, vaginal, out-your-vagina birth, make sure you tell the world. You should never talk about birth, but you should always talk about it if it was straightforward or without drugs.”
Emily Writes, Needs Adult Supervision
