MORE TO CHILD BIRTH THAN JUST SILLY COMMENTS & QUESTIONS.

As a society, I think the way we  receive the news of child birth should go beyond these silly comments and questions. 1. Did she do CS or Natural birth? 2. Did she get a boy or girl? 3. She looks so fat after birth. 4. The baby is not cute. 5. The baby is fat, slim etc. 6. It’s a boy so hurry and add a girl and vice versa. You know why? Because there’s more to giving birth than how we (society) expect a new mother  to look after childbirth, her baby gender or how she delivered. What we tend to forget is regardless these silly comments and questions,  there’s a baby being brought into this world. Other relating matters are  not for us to discuss or poke our noses into it. I assume we are a people with compassion and so expect all of us before asking such silly questions about a new mom, at least stop to think about the fact that, the new mother and her child by the grace of Allah have been able to go through the several months of pregnancy safe and sound and baby delivered safe wit
