My friend just had her first baby!
She was very committed to having a vaginal birth and no interventions, but after 24 hours in labor, agreed to undergo a C-Section because (if I understand correctly) both mom and baby were at risk for serious infection.
She's delighted with her little girl, and so happy to have her out in the world - but she is actually pretty upset about the C-section (including what it means for her ability to have natural births in the future).
Does anyone have advice on comfort I could give? I didn't face this myself and am not sure what I can say - I mean, I can give general comfort, but nothing specific.
