I can’t believe the acog (snicker) wouldn’t realize “hey, these shots are messing up women we are supposed to help..maybe we should stop..”

I’m guessing you’re being facetious but I can totally believe they don’t realize or don’t care that the shots are harmful. There are plenty of other interventions they promote as safe and act as if those interventions are problem free, when that is far from true (epidurals, c sections, pitocin, etc.).

At some point they have to look at what’s going on and think hey, something’s not right.

It may take them a decade or two 😑 When research showed episiotomies do more harm than good, many doctors continued doing them routinely for years after that, regardless.

By then it will be too late for a lot of women, unfortunately.

That's the saddest part.

The truth always comes out in the end..but dangit it doesn't need to take 10-20 years. A lot of people will be irreparably hurt.

Well yeah. That’s why some of us are so angry. These supposed “experts” are perpetuating the lies and the consequences of those lies 😕
