CAN A PREGNANT WOMAN WHO IS AN AMPUTEE HAVE A VAGINAL DELIVERY READ. SHARE. REPOST THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT READ. Dear X users, Come, sit with me for a moment, and let me answer you the way I would in clinic, with my stethoscope resting on the table and my heart leaning forward. Yes, my dear, an above-knee amputee can give birth vaginally, and this is not a miracle story, and it is not a story of pity, and it is not a story of exception. It is simply biology refusing to be bullied by assumption. The absence of a leg does not mean the absence of a pelvis, and it does not mean the absence of courage, and it certainly does not mean the absence of power. What decides whether a woman can labour and deliver vaginally is not her limb but her pelvis, and her baby’s position, and her health, and the quiet mathematics of anatomy and time. RCOG principles remind us that disability is not an indication for surgery, and this matters because medicine, like society, is tempted to confuse difference with danger. We do not choose a caesarean because a woman is an amputee; we choose it only when there is a medical reason. Anything else is fear wearing a white coat. Of course, there are practical things, because labour is not only physiology, it is choreography. It asks the body to lean and tilt and push and hold balance, and so we plan. We invite the physiotherapist early, and we learn how she moves, and how she transfers, and how she rests, and how she bears weight. We stack pillows like small promises. We offer positions that honour her body instead of fighting it. RCOG speaks of multidisciplinary care, and people hear “complicated,” but what it really means is “considered.” Not because she is weak, but because she deserves attention shaped to her body and not borrowed from another woman’s. When, then, do we recommend a caesarean? For the same reasons we do for anyone else: when the baby is too large for the pelvis, and when the baby turns its back on the exit, and when distress enters the room before the baby does, and when exhaustion makes pushing unsafe. Sometimes balance and positioning refuse to cooperate, even with all our clever planning, and then a planned caesarean becomes not a failure but a kindness. But this is a decision, not a destiny. It is medicine guided by circumstance and not by superstition. So if you are asking this because you are an amputee, hear me clearly: your body still knows how to grow life, and in many cases, it knows how to birth it. And if you are asking for someone you love, then tell her this: childbirth is not about having two legs. It is about having a pelvis that opens, and a uterus that contracts, and a team that listens. And that, my dear, is what good obstetrics looks like. Not the question, “Can she do it?” but the better question, the braver one: “How do we support her to do it safely?” Come, sit with me for a moment, and let me answer you the way I would in clinic, with my stethoscope resting on the table and my heart leaning forward.

THE BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD. CONGRATS WIFEY. WE MADE A BEAUTIFUL BABY. ❤️❤️ Before we met you, we prayed for you. Before we carried you, God carried us. This was the season of waiting, believing, and whispering “Lord, we trust You” every day. For this child I prayed, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of Him.

A WHOLE DADDY. A TALL DADDY❤️ I LOVE BEY OF A DAD❤️... Strength now has a new meaning. My arms carry you, but God carries us both. Fatherhood has taught me that love has weight and purpose. He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart.

WE WERE 32 WEEKS PREGNANT I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH❤️❤️ CONGRATULATIONS MR ANS MRS ETIOBHIO. This was love before we saw a face. This was faith growing day by day. This was God forming a testimony inside a womb. “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.” Jeremiah 1:5
